Dark and relaxing.

[@deedeetibbits]

Thanks for listening!

[@davidvanrijn3645]

this was performed so clear in my mind that I fell apart and was found on the local church steps and police were called. What a breath of fresh air amongst all the din, thanks you!

[@heatherroberson8981]

Your musical talent just amazes me! All the different instruments that you can play is astounding!

[@deedeetibbits]

Thank you….that’s so encouraging 🎶

[@happyradiantlife2346]

Lovely with a beautiful ending, too! Thank you, DeeDee!

[@deedeetibbits]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@debrawittig3944]

They liked your hammered dulcimer playing so well that I've decided to treat my budgies to more of your beautiful music on different instruments. They are now gathering on the curtain rod behind me to sing along with you once again😊

[@deedeetibbits]

Hahah…hope they like it!

[@user-tj8hq3so2m]

WOUNDERBAR MIN FRAULINE..I WONDER IF THAT TUNE GOES BACK TO DAVID SON OF JESSIE..AND DID HE PLy that FOR KING SAUL?????? 🇺🇲🙊🙈🙉🇺🇲😁👍👍👍

[@deedeetibbits]

I really believe it was similar! There’s just SOMETHING about the harp that is spiritual!

[@janetryan9779]

How beautiful! The large harp has such resonance, and that is a lovely, haunting song….very Celtic! You played it very well. How many strings does that harp have? I have a 22-string Heather harp that is smaller than that…must be set on a small stand when I sit and play it. Do you have sharping levers, or pedals? (Am assuming levers, but just wondered because of the larger size).

[@deedeetibbits]

Thank you very much! That actually is my smaller harp. It has 31 strings and was a kit from Music Makers. My big 39 string lever harp is a Pratt. My REALLY little Celtic harp is played on 4 legs that are added to the bottom. It’s easier to take to a concert than the others.

[@janetryan9779]

@@deedeetibbits A friend of mine has a harp of similar size to yours- at least as much as I can tell from the video. She must take her harp with her when she buys a car, to make sure that she gets a car that accommodates the harp (because she sometimes plays out at weddings). I like the small size of mine in terms of portability, but sometimes wish that it was larger in terms of versatility and range of notes. I have mainly just used mine in ministries, or for small programs (though I did use it once when doing recording with a friend). It fits nicely into the back seat or the trunk! :)

[@desertfox1273]

Your harp has a lovely sound. What make is it please? Thank you!

[@deedeetibbits]

Thanks! It was made from a Music Makers harp kit!

[@alicequayle4625]

Bits of this sound a bit like Chanter's Tune. Might make a good mashup for someone.

[@deedeetibbits]

….oooo….I’ll have to try that! Thanks for the idea🎶

[@Unborn-Lives-Matter]

Thank you for another beautiful rendition of a song. It must be great fun to play so many instruments so well. I can only handle three, Guitar, Mandolin and Banjo. Oh, and drums, if slapping leather counts! To be fair, I only play guitar with any proficiency though. You are proficient on SO many. Yes, I am envious!

[@deedeetibbits]

Thank you! The music is the SAME….only the technique changes! I’d say THREE instruments is indeed a big accomplishment!🎶
