My dear Tamsin, Each listening to your interpretations is a moment of pure pleasure for me who loves the work of the great Turlough O' Carolan so much. Your arrangement is magic, and allowed me a beautiful journey in music. Thank you for this beautiful artistic gift, and wishing you a very nice weekend. Musically, Phil

Ahhhh so beautiful!!! And on the Ravenna 26, it sounds perfect!! I have one & love it!! Get compliments all the time on how much that little harp can project!!

[@TamsinDearnley]

Can't it just!! And thank you, I'm so glad you liked it!

[@acolleenjones]

Beautiful and I can play it on my Odyssey!

[@TamsinDearnley]

Ahhh yes you can! I love arranging for 26 strings - you have to be just a little bit more careful to make sure things sound balanced, but it's really worth it to have a piece you can play with a more easily transportable harp...!

[@delpharp]

Je me disais bien que je reconnaissais le bar !! Incroyable, sublime interprétation et le cadre rend super bien

[@TamsinDearnley]

Haha, vous connaissez Toulouse?! (Vous êtes sur Toulouse?! Si oui, dites moi - je serais /ravie/ de rencontre une autre harpiste ici...!) Merci beaucoup de vos mots si gentils 😍🎶

[@delpharp]

@@TamsinDearnley j'y ai vécu 5 ans, malheureusement je n'y suis plus ! Peut-être que c'était vous que je voyais jouer parfois dans la rue des Carmes ? Si je passe à Toulouse, je vous ferai signe 😊

[@howardbarnes3714]

You have such a deft, light touch. Beautiful sounds.

[@TamsinDearnley]

Thank you so much - I love this little harp!

[@bw6138]

I love the music from the Celtic Nations. That's the lands of my ancestors. I am a Wallace.

[@TamsinDearnley]

It's a lovely tune, isn't it! Thank you for watching :)

[@lamarpuckett6950]

So delightful!! Love to hear you play!!!

[@TamsinDearnley]

Thanks so much for watching! :D

[@fastidioussloth]

Exquisite and ethereal. (I play my arrangement on guitar at slower minuet pace and the pitch is much lower.) Please record a whole CD of O'Carolan.

[@TamsinDearnley]

Thank you so much! And it's on my list, but I'm not sure when I'll get round to it...! ;)

Thank you! 😍🎶✨

[@bluebiegrace1828]

So beautiful ❤. Is the Ravenna a big harp. I’m planning to get it.

[@toni2606]

Beautiful! Could this be modified to play on a 22/44 double strung harp? Thank you!🎶🙂

[@TamsinDearnley]

Hello! The range of this arrangement goes from C below middle C (C3) to 3 Ds above middle C (D6), so it may need some tweaking to work, I'm afraid - that being said, with double strings your hands can overlap much more so you could probably do a bit of re-arranging if you're willing to!

[@carolinesaintdenis]

I would love to purchase your arrangement, but the link listed above doesn't work. :(

[@TamsinDearnley]

Hello! Oh, I do apologise - thank you so much for mentioning this! I thought I had updated all my links when I migrated the shop, but this one I seem to have missed. I've updated it now, but here it is as well: tamsindearnley.co.uk/sheetmusic/?id=carolans-cottage I hope you enjoy it!

[@gerald-dw7vp]

Est-ce que sur votre partition (celle qui est en vente) vous indiquez quel doigt doit faire quelle note ? Merci 🙂

[@TamsinDearnley]

Bonjour, merci de votre message! Je regrette, mais je n'ai pas indiqué le doigté sur cette partition - désolée!

[@gerald-dw7vp]

@@TamsinDearnley Ok, merci 🙂

[@hiw9528]

Very beautiful! Are your arrangements (your sheets music) also suitable to be played on a 17/17 hammered dulcimer?

[@TamsinDearnley]

Hello! You know, I'm afraid I have no idea as it's not an instrument I play! If you look at the sheet music page on my website there is always a preview to each piece so you can see what it looks like - perhaps this might help? You should also be able to see the range of each piece so you'll know if you have enough notes. I hope this helps! I'd love to hear them on a hammered dulcimer, it's a beautiful instrument, so do feel free to share if you manage it! 🤩

[@hiw9528]

@@TamsinDearnley Thank you very much. The preview is helpful. I just downloaded the sheetmusic. I am curious to find out how it will sound on my (rather big) dulcimer!

[@briankerr4512]

That's worth a case of beer.

[@TamsinDearnley]

I'm very glad you think so! ;)

[@JosSae2]

Which DS harp-model is this?

[@TamsinDearnley]

This is a Ravenna 26 😊
