Music for a Found Harmonium - Folk Music (Composer: Simon Jeffes) | Katy Adelson

[@garryb4072]

Katy Adelson walks through the woods and finds a nice playable harmonium. If it had been me, I’d have found a broken tromba marina :D

[@nancyullrich5447]

The video is SUPERB! As a videographer I know how much time and effort it takes to find the perfect location, get the lighting right, determine the camera angles for the story line, zoom in, zoom out, ensure the audio is accurate, ... ad infinitum. And, then you have to perform!! You did an outstanding job on both the performance and the video!!! THANK YOU!

[@jecolonbaez5064]

She should never stop playing. I am traveling back and forth all the years I have missed this talent.

[@zafiroanejo395]

I can’t say “thank you” enough, Katy! Autumn is in the air. .

[@djoy5617]

As soon as you started playing I was like "I know that!" Never knew what it was called but it fit perfectly in the movie. Would love to see more behind the scenes stuff, too!

[@pauloconnor6331]

Love it! Katy DID find a harmonium.

[@violahime4197]

The setting is so pretty and the music was great!

[@jamesmcglynn8363]

Thst tune is not gor the faint hearted ladies. And boy have you nailed it. Brilliant playing. Shay.

[@ThirdEyeDivers]

Spilled me brew jiggin to this tune in the pub.

[@ballisticus1]

This tune has really grown on me. It sounds like it belongs in a Wes Anderson film during a montage scene.

[@TheAdmirableAdmiral]

It was used in Napoleon Dynamite during the montage at the end.

[@WW226]

Beautiful music and setting fits perfectly 👌 😍

[@mauriceperret5111]

Dynamite Katy ! Thank and congratulations for your video, from France

[@benjamingrist6539]

The production values of your videos have gone up immensely over the past several months. Good work, Katy!

[@iangray5407]

It was enlightening to watch your creative process at the end - despite false starts and rethinks, the final product is seamless - there's got to be a lesson there!

[@adorian5860]

I am currently practicing violin 🎻 to sound just like you Katy when I watch your videos because my goal is to bring happiness and joy with music to people. just like you transmite joy with your music 🎶 and I hope one day I can meet you in person, God bless you Katy

[@AndrewsGuitarChannel]

Thanks for another great video. It appears your skills are not just limited to music but also include videography and editing. Your videos have come along way since you put out Tam Lin. More behind the scenes footage would be much appreciated...and maybe some pointers to.....

[@paca_bill4863]

Katy, that was a really fun piece; some of the chord progressions definitely threw me for a loop the first time you played it through. I'll need to look up the harmonium - it has the bellows on the back, and I'm assuming a small bladder inside? Overall great video! And yes, I enjoy seeing the behind-the-scenes clips; I think it shows how much work goes into setting up for one of these vlogs, and doesn't even cover all the post work you have to do. Wishing you a safe and joyous Thanksgiving, even with the oddities this year! "This, too, shall pass!" - funny, that's what the doc said right before my last colonoscopy ;-) Cheers!

[@KatyAdelson]

Thank you!! Yeah, the chords are pretty bizarre and chaotic lol. I had the D drone going the whole time, too, which made it even more clash-y than if a guitar were accompanying. I was on the fence about keeping the drone for those weirder chords, but I think I kind of like the “siren-traffic-jam” vibe it all created that contrasted to d-major, so I left the drone in for the whole song. 🙂 it’s fun to experiment with music! I might cringe at it later lol. 😊 Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍁

[@richardplante1229]

I have about 4 different accordions and enjoy playing this rousing ditty a lot. It's also fun when a bodhran player, some fiddlers and a flute join in. What a hoot.

[@sanoyuki100]

You are amazing! Beautiful music! I hope you have been healthy! 👏👏👏👏👏☺

[@KatyAdelson]

Thank you!! I’ve been okay. =) I hope you are well, too!

[@null3179]

Really nice, as usual !

[@philliplohnes3675]

I thought I would listen to some of your old videos and this popped up first in my search: One of my favorite tunes. Your library of videos gets better and better (Greasy Coat, please).

[@1888SEÁN]

It's a sin i can't find your version on spotify. This is just brilliant!

[@Wolfie387]

Absolutely fabulous Katy...thank you.

[@jamesgano8251]

How fun was that! Happy Thanksgiving!

[@tps607]

A morning coffee-time delight...thanks Katy

[@tps607]

Katy, this is brilliant...the cvdeo, the backstory clips and of course, your performance. Hope you have a safe and happy Thanksgiving

[@mch12311969]

I dig this, thanks for sharing! Stay safe and Happy Thanksgiving.

[@caroline7420]

Your violin case is so cute! Awesome job!!! Can't wait to hear more!

[@needsbeer]

That was terrific. Thank you for posting.

[@JaseBDaley]

exelente! one of my favourite movies is Malcolm, starring Colin Friels, and this was the theme song. i've listened to 5 versions today and i like yours the most :)

[@3DPT]

Great, now i'm addicted to this song, have 6 versions in my playlist.

[@gdudas]

Time to dust off the old Penguin Café Orchestra CD ... well played, thank you!

[@p5gBand]

Katy that was a wonderful song. Awesome playing. I had not heard of a harmonium prior to this but you are right, it does sound like n accordion. Thank you.

[@shutteral1]

Wow, thanks Katy! This has inspired me to work on this tune again, never quite got it going properly. This is challenging piece to do on the mando at speed.

[@abhijitborah]

Music is fabulous as always. The cinematography was superb too. It seemed to tell an old tale.

[@woolyub]

That's quite a cool video to accompany the tune. Beautiful harmonium too

[@VonBeck411]

Wonderful!

[@pretzeloverdose]

I was just thinking of Penguin Cafe Orchestra and getting back into violin a few days ago and here you are! You are BRILLIANT!

[@seankirby2580]

Absolutely first class. Unbelievably good. Thank you.

[@MikeFowlerguitars]

I tend to watch mostly guitar videos but you are seriously cool, and the editing on this video is very very impressive. ,👏👏👏👏👍👍👍 Big smile over here in Yorkshire, England.

[@Mrbillmacd]

Great stuff Katy!

[@MaddieoftheMoon]

I love this song so much and your version was wonderful 🙌

[@xdxdxd1991]

Wow harmonium , such a nice combo , only u can make em sound so good

[@lindamon8]

Brilliant! Always loved that tune since I first heard it from the Penguin Cafe Orchestra.

[@emmanuelemmanuel2700]

Merci Katy for all you offer to us. Take care. Emmanuel- Switzerland

[@ronaelf]

Brilliant job! I too find the tune repetitive but that is sort of it's charm.There is an infectious enthusiasm to the momentum of the tune that I think grabs people. Stay safe and keep playing!

[@wayneandrews8379]

I like the way you keep us filled with suspense! You always seem to be full of surprises, so I can’t wait to see what you will come up with next!!! The Harmonium and the Violin seem to harmonize very well in melody. I had to keep running this video back to read the script because they went by so fast. Keep up the good work Katy!

[@wild_soma_flow]

Oh my god I dream few days ago how it will be with the violin 🎻❤️ I ha e a harmonium a d this video inspired me so so much thank you ❤️❤️❤️

[@michaelpierson1711]

Just…Wow!

[@beaugonzales5171]

Jesus, that was fantastic, sounds great. Nice work

[@itatane]

The drumbeat (a bodhrán?) while a bit slower, puts me in mind of "Apache" by the Shadows back in the 60's. (On a side note... I wonder how that would sound on the fiddle...)

[@yeoldfart8762]

One of our favorite Contra Dance tunes. ,nicely done!

[@mikeking2073]

You just keep getting better and better. Your camera work is really good too.

[@Cookies-i2f]

Fabuleux, toujours aussi pro, charmant et généreux ! Vive Katy, the best !

[@howardtownsend3139]

Beautiful rendition of one of my favourite pieces! Thank you.

[@istvankovanecz8332]

Katy, it is good to see you again playing, happy and safe! ❤️ The music and you were so lively, in stark contrast to the otherworldly burning sky. Thank you for the lovely performance. It seems you can play any instrument as lovely as the violin 😊. I definitely would like to see more "behind the scene" footage. Stay safe and happy (Thanksgiving)!

[@MrDepodot7]

Thanks for sharing your talents and music with us.❤

[@disentropicproductions]

Well, this is the first time I've seen or heard a harmonium, and I gotta say I want one now 😂 It sounds lovely! Great music, and great camera-work. Kudos for the performance and the composer!

[@kevinhorsfield7048]

And about time, you are missed! I was starting to fear that you had succumbed to eating too much of your last production! Must of taken a lot of work, well done. Take care.

[@enelahabii]

You are amazing, my daily dose of serotonin :D

That was so lovely and fun! ❤️

[@blinkie1523]

Katy you and your twin did a simply awesome job on this tune. Your twin even played the Piano Accordion beautifully. You did real well to catch the flock of birds flying buy in the finishing sunset too. Stay safe & healthy yourself thus have a very happy thanks giving Katy.

[@nancycouch357]

I really love this.

[@MollyTea55]

Cute/ LOVE the setting !👏👏💕🎼🎼👍

[@christophertsiliacos8958]

👏 👍Wow! As a prolific musician, if you can play the harmonium, you can certainly learn to play the concertina...if you don't already. 👌 😉

[@kobusbritz8530]

Wow, that was a lot of work! Sounds a bit like Hillbilly to me (I'm from Germany), but it's a very nice, aesthetic video! 🥰

[@KatyAdelson]

It does sound kind of hillbilly, lol! 😊 Thank you!

[@legamature]

Are there hillbillys in Germany? I'm from USA

[@voenigs612]

@@legamature Of course we also have a rural population, e.g. Parts of the population in the state/Bundesland (similar to state in USA) Bavaria, but in Germany 233 people live in one square kilometer (1 kilometer = 1000 meters), in the USA it is 35 people per square kilometer, and the USA is a much bigger country than Germany. I want to say that there are people in Germany who are a bit simpler, but the differences to the entire population are not as great as perhaps in the USA. In Germany you cannot drive 10 kilometers without seeing a house. But if you mean the culture/music, it is actually a bit different in Bavaria than in the rest of Germany and maybe a bit comparable to Hillbilly in the USA.

[@legamature]

@@voenigs612 Thanks for your answer. Do you speak English? Is it spoken widely in Germany?

[@legamature]

@@voenigs612 I watched a video. English is spoken by 56% of Germans. I speak only English.
