      +abigguitar not out to argue with you here bud, but Daniel said she started learning at 5, he didn't say she could play this at 5.. Also 4 years of practicing an instrument is not nearly enough time to become this good, she really is something special. Professional adults who have spent at least a decade practicing may struggle with the complexity of this piece. Even the prodigy Paganini on his violin spent his whole life playing and learnt new things each day, you can't ever truly master an instrument (yes you can be INCREDIBLE) but even masters are still learning, much love X

      Alisa is such a pleasure to listen to. My only regret is that new videos of her do not come out often and have a very low viewership. But my understanding, from her teacher Olga Shevelevich, is that she is becoming very well known in the European classical world.

  • @xyoxe

    for anyone who doesn't know, the shuffling sounds as she plays are her pressing the pedals. look at the top of the harp, where the strings meet the metal. every time one string set of those disks move, that's a pedal being moved. there are seven pedals, each with three different positions. that means she's thinking of 21 different positions that her pedals need to move to, sometimes doing multiple at once, with just her two feet, all while her hands play the beautiful strings. this is absolutely incredible... i feel so lucky to be able to listen to her play.

    • @bananahharpist
      @bananahharpist 2 місяці тому +2

      this is absolutely correct! quite a lot of people think that playing the harp is a lot easier than playing the piano, considering their resemblance. but I don think this is true. I have experience playing both and I can say the pedals make it easier because you don't have to constantly remember the accidentals you have in a certain key, but you have to more pedals at an exact time and prevent buzzing all while playing or even memorizing. I find writing pedals for harp music difficult yet fun! it's definitely something you really need to think hard on

    • @shnassau
      @shnassau Місяць тому

      She plays of course with a lot of errors and she is probably too short yet and has not enough strong feets for the concertharp (you can hear how hard she stomp on the pedals, how loud they are at each change to sharp or flat), but she clearly show, that kids can learn to play even Rimsky-Korsakov pieces with a lot of hard work. Question is, if it is worth to do it?!

Usually, young prodigies can master a song technically, but playing with this much elegance is rare in a young prodigy. And I love the little smile immediately after she plays the last note. It shows that she loves what she is doing. She is something special.

    To amp up the ability of this young lady even more, the camera isn't even catching her nearly flawless pedal changes involved in this piece (if you didn't know, there are seven pedals on the base of the harp that allow it to play in all keys. Whenever an accidental occurs, the harpist is required to change the appropriate pedal for that, particular accidental. She makes a few mistakes, but, otherwise, it's amazing).

      fancylong Most harpists play from memory, I think. If you practice a piece long enough you usually memorize it by default, whichever instrument you play, I think. It’s especially helpful for harpists, though, so they can focus their attention on the strings. Even the 9-year old non-prodigy harpist I know generally knows the pieces by heart quite quickly. It’s obviously a lot more difficult to memorize every dynamic and note and key change in a complicated piece like this one, but the mind and muscle memory usually grow alongside the musician.

      @@bananahharpist While watching some harp videos a few years ago and seeing all those gadgets at the top, and also seeing them move and hearing the mechanical clicking and thumping, I went to Wiki and read about the instrument. I was fascinated. I had no idea it was so complex.
      I had always wondered how the harp could have such a large range with as few strings as that. Now I know. For those who don't know, the seven pedals operate those stops along the top so that each string can play three different notes. Each of six of those pedals has to be held down while needed, and one of them locks with one push, then unlocks with a second push (IIRC). Amazing stuff!
      Also, viewers, if you notice, harps flare out at the bottom. That's because the whole bottom is a sounding board and serves the same purpose as the body of a guitar or violin: to amplify the sound. Without it, the harp would be hard to hear. Most of what you are hearing is coming from the base, not the strings -- especially for the deeper notes, I would guess, which is why it gets wider at that end of the harp.
      My daughter was married shortly after I did that research, and there was a harpist for the wedding. I couldn't wait to go see the harp up close and ask the harpist some questions. Unfortunately, she didn't stay for the reception, and left when I wasn't looking.

    Awe struck!!
    Beyond spectacular!
    AND as mentioned, there are seven pedals that are activated by foot so that flats and sharps can be played.They have to be moved silently and instantly to facilitate and execute the composition's #'s and b's. This what the black keys on a piano, organ or harpsichord do. If not done skillfully the mechanism that "pinches" to raise or lower the length of the string (just like pressing down on the strings of the guitar, violins and cellos) can cause a buzzing or twang sound.
    This phenomenal talent has been taught, I believe, the French harpist Marcel Grandjany technique of "pulling" on the strings somewhat with the sides of the fingers engaging the more fleshy contact area, creating a more "mellow" type of sound.
    The other technique taught to pull on the strings was developed by the Spanish harpist Carlos Salzedo. This uses the skin side of the finger tip opposite side from the fingernail. This creates a more "brittle" quality tone similar to the Spanish quitar.
    I grew up in a household with my harp playing mother who used the harp to accompany herself while singing instead of the piano or quitar. She was an honors choral conductor and piano major at Northwestern University and sang professionally giving concerts throughout Europe, Wis., Chicago and it's North Shore communities during the 50's and 60's.
    My involment with the harp during that period when I was in high school, consisted of loading the station wagon with several different sized harps and carriers, lights, gowns etc several times a week before I went to school in the morning and then after school when she drove back.
    She would occasionally include me (piano) and my two sisters (harp) in her programs.
    By the time my oldest sister graduated from high school she was earning money performing with area and university orchestras that did music that specifically required harp (Benjamin Britten's A Ceremony of Carols, sung with a women's chorus and other works). She won a national harp competition and was awarded a full tuition scholarship on harp to the Eastman School of Music. She went on to be the harp faculty at the University of Denver and first call union harpist as well as perform in the Denver Symphony.
    That's why I was so "flabbergasted" hearing this nine year old little girl play the difficult harp standard virtually perfect with such compelling musicianship!!!

    This is very well played! What a talented little girl! However, it is by Albert Zabel. It is La Source Am Springbrunnen (which I bet means The Fountaini n German) Op 23. Published by Salvi Publications.

      Маленько чудо! Ангелочек! Думаю каждый здравый папка, мечтал бы о такой доченьке, о том, чтобы рассмотреть талант в ребëнке, сообразно тому какой талант Бог дал, и развивать, совершенствовать! Но основная масса родителей так не делают, к сожалению, а умные родители так делают! Правильно поступают те родители которые вкладываются в детей по полной программе! У таких и бывает результат и успех!

    This is going to sound stupid but when I was a little girl I wanted to play the harp. But over the years I slowly forgot the instrument existed. Looking at videos I finally remembered the instrument existed. Wow I am dumb.

      @BARBATVS 89 I never claimed aliens to be real nor compared anything. I don't what you're trying to get at, but you sound like a nut , using all your vocabulary in a sentence of irrelevant assumptions that you made and changing the subject entirely at the end . I didn't even mean to offend you from the start, it was a light joke lol, pity

    Esta melodia por dios...... Me hace llorar demasiado, la oi por primera vez en la interpretación magistral de esta niña hace 2 años 4 meses, a la semana de que falleció mi madre y me marcó demasiado.... Siento que el tiempo ha pasado y no puedo superar su partida... No puedo, me cuesta muchisimo olvidar, es muy fuerte para mi oir esta melodia, porque me la imagino en un lugar muy hermoso al cual yo no puedo llegar... Dios mio..... Que bella interpretación de esta niña.... De verdad me emociono al oirla, mi alma se estremece, muy muy muy bella
