Metamorphosis II by Philip Glass | Lavinia Meijer | TEDxAmsterdam

[@wakingtheworld]

Piano, violin, handpans... now a harp version of this mesmerising piece. Goosebumps. An exquisite performance.

[@tomkot]

One of the best TEDx Talks. Words are overrated, sound itself is a form of communication.

[@supersailorsailing6405]

Her modulation of tempo and volume are just exquisite beyond words.

[@ashhh2198]

ahh yes i know what that means :)

[@BestKCL]

@@ashhh2198 tempo = how fast the underlying "beat"/pacing of the song is volume = volume

[@barbara1943]

@@BestKCL downvote for being presumtpuosly pedantic; second downvote for being irrelevant; upvote for playing into the self-promoting game.

[@barbara1943]

absolutely, yes.

[@michaelyoung6557]

The transition of the cadence from one hand to the other is flawless

[@Revanced001Revanced00]

She transforms me to a magical world. Harp is the best fit for this piece. Have listened to piano also but harp is just devine...

[@razorrabbit2789]

On harp you can literally touch every tone. Gives kind of more adjustment especially when performing so called Minimal Music.

[@davismiller4369]

In performance after performance, no one touches the power, precision and profundity that Lavinia Meijer extracts from this piece.

[@timoboyle8867]

Stunning performance.

[@simplexj4298]

Philip Glass' original performance on the Grand Piano is great, but this is the real thing! Fabulous!

[@tommaso1114]

I’ve just listened to this version of this song for the very first time and my jaw has dropped. Wow. She plays the harp so beautifully and she feels it with her whole body. Absolutely gorgeous!!!!!!!!❤️

[@DieFlabbergast]

It is a piece, or work. It is not a song. If you hear any lyrics, or any human voice, see a doctor immediately.

[@paulmorton3259]

Love Philip glass, I find his music so transparent.

[@clocked0]

A year late, but excellent joke my friend :)

[@daevaskye]

A good joke and also a true quality of the music.

[@greymanBB]

Just the fillip one needs to get thru a hard day.

[@digitalboxjellychironex3605]

This is very special. Such talent. I keep replaying this again and again…

[@carolvota8619]

Lavinia Meijer is so beautiful and talented . what a treasure

[@timblock3483]

Goddess.

[@PeppermintTwyst]

Captivating. Glass meets harp. A marriage made in the cosmos.

[@MindfulFuryy87]

This is one of the best versions I've seen

[@Anais-cs3ub]

I haven't words to describe my feelings which this master piece caused on me...

[@PCmaatje]

After listening to this piece of art I first needed to land back on Earth again and dry my eyes... Wow, this is soo wonderfully played!!!

[@paullanier8280]

Harp players are the best ! Have talent and skill . If this art was easy, everyone could do it. In admiration of her dedication to her perfect work.

[@UbercakeNL]

I have long been admirer of Phillip Glass, Lavinia Meijer is however insanely brilliant...

[@timsmith1894]

As someone who listen to Metamorphosis 2 every day from @Philip Glass, Ms. Meijer nails it!!

[@danielibarra0796]

This interpretation is shocking and exciting, because by the piece, as well as for the instrument and the performer. Beautiful!!!

Love, peace, and a passion for her harp, her music, and for life glow on her face. Beautiful music and musician.

[@claireroche4486]

I read long ago : ‘In world of shattered dreams , the Artist must celebrate the comely and the beautiful…radiant exuberant beauty .’. It was either Michael Tippett or Pablo Casals. Philip Glass and Lavinia Meïjer epitomise this in such a joyous way, as an immense gift to us all. Thank you so very much .

[@elsagk223]

My fave Glass’ song!! I’m mesmerised by this performance!!! 😮😮👏👏👏👏👏♥️

[@Stefi-]

Wow. This Musik ist just wow! And she is so beautiful!

[@Mishka-g9t]

Bought tears to my eyes the shear beauty

[@Youtuber90sdude]

One day they will fully discover the power of music and see the genius of this song. Simple yet powerful. I wish I could play it myself so I could experience it as a musician.

[@claireroche4486]

Exquisite, and reverent playing by Ms.Meijer …oh thank you for this beauty …such a Joy !

[@BreizhSharkFR]

@@tommaso1114I'm thinking seriously of a way to have her playing metamorphosis 1 & 2 and even more _(haven't listened much from her atm)_ at mine x') Hey Lavinia you could fly to Brittany for this ? x')

[@liz1497]

This made me cry

[@camofrog]

I played this song when the vet came to kill my dog.

[@timoboyle8867]

Yes! Life passing/flashing by... I love that, at least to my ear, there is the repeated mechanical sound of a clockwork throughout the piece ... tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock ... marking the time, the life, the music, that is passing by.

[@erikvanvliet67]
