What an amazing example of a harpist who has given her life in service to her instrument! All her recordings, performances, teaching, etc. To be able to play Ballade from memory that well at her age is testament to the fact that she has truly lived with this piece for decades and can still throw down.
Mesmerising! If I recall correctly. Judy played this piece AND Scintillation at her graduation recite which I attended @ Curtis Institute. She plays it even better now. Salzedo would be jealous. Amazing harpist, amazing human being. When are you going to post her playing the Salzedo Variations live??

Great to see the 'footwork' on the pedals. Tap dancers have nothing on pedal harpists!
The audience forgot to silent their cell phones. Kinda distracts a performance. 😑
