Harp away your exam stress!

Well, it’s that time of year again! This week and the next I’m struggling to pass several exams. Once that is over, I have finished my three years of philosophy at the seminary and the holidays can begin! I can barely think about what that will be like….

In the interest of occupying oneself when one is not studying, I decided to get behind my harp and tape a few songs I have been working on of late for the ordination of a friend of mine. He asked that I play at his feast afterwards, and I might as well share a bit of my passion for this beautiful interest with all of you.

Below, you can watch a video (sorry for the terrible recording quality of the sound) where I play a prelude of George Friedrich Handel. Handel lived around 1700 and, along with Bach, can be seen as the most influential and accomplished composer of his age.

I really hope you enjoy this one… it’s really become one of my favorites!
