What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong (Stoney End Double-Strung Ena Harp 432hz) + Sheet Music

This is a heartwarming classic song originally sung by the iconic Louis Armstrong in 1967. I just love how he has a forever smile on his face when he sings, and how the message has such a positive vibe. Here are the lyrics:
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you
I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world
I am very excited to debut my new 22 string Stoney End walnut double-strung Ena (F-F) harp with you in this video. Since the string tension is highest of all the Stoney End lap harps, it has an exquisite warm tone which I absolutely love. I've only had it for less than a month, so the sound is not quite as open and developed yet. But the tone is already so gorgeous and captivating that I just can't put it down. Imagine what it will sound like down the road once the voice really opens up! The string spacing is smaller than that of Brea, so if my arms look bunched up, they are LOL.
Beautiful fall colors are all around us now, so I thought I'd share with you the beauty of autumn days in Mt. Shasta. I hope this song brings a smile to your face 😊.
*Sheet music is now available for purchase here: www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/....
P.S. All my harps are tuned to A=432hz to be more in harmony with the natural healing vibration of nature. For more information on the benefits of 432hz tuning, check out this short article: powerthoughtsmeditationclub.co...

[@TracieLin]

Thank you, Pino! Hope all is well with you 🙏

[@JessieLiuHarp]

Woww this sounds fantastic! I love your arrangement and your Ena sounds gorgeous!! Congratulations on your new beauty 😍

[@TracieLin]

Jessie Liu Thank you so much Jessie 🥰! Yes Ena makes everything sound good with her beautiful tone. And surprisingly I don’t find the smaller string spacing or higher tension a problem. You get used to it after a while. Now I feel Brea is too spaced out LOL 😂.

[@JessieLiuHarp]

@@TracieLin that's interesting! I guess this means you'll be letting go of your brea then? 🤭

[@TracieLin]

@@JessieLiuHarp I am pretty sure that is what's going to happen. Eve has asked me to try the same stringing of Ena on the Brea so I did, and now Brea sounds pretty nice too. IMO, it sounds better than the original stringing. But ultimately, I'll choose one to keep and let go of the other as I don't need 2 similar harps of the same size.

[@JessieLiuHarp]

@@TracieLin ohh thats cool I might switch the stringing of my Brea the tension is a bit too light for me hehe thanks for sharing!

[@judygobble954]

Beatiful and sweet. Thanks for arranging this. I just purchased sheet music-studying your video following the sheet music. I dont see in the video where you made the right hand F changes. (Trying to see how to handle a right hand lever change)Thanks

[@TracieLin]

Thank you so much! It turns out that I unintentionally left out measures 33 to 36, and went straight from 32 to 37 in the video. I actually didn't realize that until after I uploaded the video. But doing lever change in RH is doable with practice and I have done it before. Please check out my "Over the Rainbow" video where I did it around 2:44 and 2:57 mark. You can follow the string up to feel where the lever is and get used to its position. The more you practice, the more precise your reach will be until it becomes fairly familiar. Hope this helps!

[@judygobble954]

Thanks For the info that helps. 😁👍

[@essalove]

I Love your version omg, can this play on normal harp? And how can I buy this musicsheet from you?

[@TracieLin]

Thank you so much 🥰! I have the link in the description for the double strung sheet music. To play on the single, it would have to be rearranged and I have not had a chance to try it yet.

[@MarkFosterMelodies]

I have always been impressed with the tone on this little harp! How does the string tension differ from the Brea? It is a beautiful rendition of this song by the way. As always, you produce such beautiful music!

[@TracieLin]

Mark Foster I really appreciate your comment, Mark! The tension is definitely higher than the Brea, thus producing a rounder and warmer tone. They would call Ena’s tension medium high for a lever harp. I like it because there’s less chance of buzzing and overplaying the strings. Yet the tone sounds exquisite.
