Qui fait rêver les oiseaux dans les arbres
Et sangloter d'extase les jets d'eau,
Les grands jets d'eau sveltes parmi les marbres."

For those who don’t know piano is like a giant automated Harpe.
True. To me, the harp sounds like a cross between a Spanish Guitar and a Piano
Art Dealer I don’t hear much of the piano but I do hear the Spanish guitar haha
@@Hannahdealer8180 so true!
@@daphnemosh because the piano has a hammer hitting the strings. Harp is plucked likea spanish guitar. But the comment was reffering to the general design, an automated harp.
Whoever invented the piano must have had a harp first then rigged it up flat with keys to push and cause hammers to strike.
I have only heard this piece played once by a harp at a high-priced restaurant in Grand Cayman when I was a relatively young man. I thought it was stunningly beautiful and would have requested that the harper come to our table, but I really did not know an appropriate amount to tip.
Ten to twenty bucks.
"will 7 grand sufice sir?"
Au Claire de Lune is stunningly beautiful on just about any instrument. Especially piano or harp. (Release the endorphins!)
jfan4reva 😆i want to make that into a music nerd tee shirt! But i won’t do it if you want to do it yourself 🤗
Brag much? :/
I'm a simple gal, I see Clair De Lune...
I click.
including if it’s a harp mwah
same here tho
Sums up my life
TORURURUURURU
Yep. Heard it when I was a kid. Now at 44, still a favorite. Might be one of the few exceptions to the kazoo rule.
This piece seriously sounds beautiful in every instrument
It is an etherealy beautiful piece of music by Debussy.
In my mind i was like "what about A dumpster and a bunch of trash" then i imagined it and it still sounded nice.
Truly, Mr. Rojas.
Drums?
Mayonnaise cover when?
One of the most beautiful things I have ever heard.
❤
We need this beautiful music so much right now, thank you our angel 🥰 stay safe and healthy
Kkkkk
🙊
simp alert

This is the height of the beauty of human expression.
I used to play this piece so much for my 16 year old teen when he was a baby. We are quarantined from each other in the house right now (so far all ok, not ill!). Sent this to him to help him sleep tonight. Thank you for this most lovely arrangement.

I don’t know that I’ve ever heard a rendition of Claire de Lune quite at this level. Devastatingly beautiful.
SO TRUE. I've seen every version of this song done on the harp, and this one remains the best.
You Tube's not too0 bad. Yesterday I clicked on a piano rendition and thought how nicely it would play on a harp. Today, I get a harp rendition! A really beautiful one!
When anyone plays the harp really well, as this young woman does, I always think of "liquid silver." I've thought that all my life (and I'm almost 70)---it's just the most beautiful image and I can't explain how the silver makes the music, but it's what I see every time.
Well, the music "flows" somewhat? The finger motions are almost rain-like.
You might have synaesthesia :)
Wow we are almost thinking the same thing. Whenever i hear this piece i always think of a smooth glossy liquid flowing like liquid silver.
I understand. It flows lightly and luxuriously, and it is the clouds' silver lining!
Dewy morning.
This is an original translation of Verlaine's poem, from French to English. I opted for eight syllables of iambic tetrameter, and (like Verlaine), I gave it an ABAB rhyme scheme. Thematically, and in imagery, it's pretty close to the original. If you look closely, you'll see a tribute to Coleridge. Enjoy!
MOONLIGHT
Your sacred soul a chosen land,
Of music, masquerade, and dance.
They play the lute, and kiss the hand --
With saddened hearts, they seek romance.
A minor key unlocks a song,
Of love and life and lonely eyes.
The music whispers loud and long,
Of weeping moon and paradise.
The moon is sad and bright and clear,
And sings the nightingale to sleep.
The fountains cry with joyful tears,
While sleeping marble statues weep.
Beautiful poetry ❤️👍🏻😁 ... ❤️✌🏻🕯🕯
Did you choose your username after the legend, or is it your real name? Thank you for the beautiful translation, by the way!
@@sambird7946 It's a nom de plume, lol. Thank you for the kind words.
@@cosm1cstar Thank you! xoxo
The song has a strong connection with the poem!
I can see the countless hours of work it took to play like this.
I am always a bit biased when it comes to hearing Heloise play the harp. Not only is her playing exquisite but all the music she plays is perfectly suited to the harp. Whenever I listen to Heloise I completely in her thrall. To see her delicate fingers caressing the strings to produce magical sounds. I also think that debussy had the harp in mind when he wrote claire de lune. Thank you Heloise for your beautiful playing.
Brian Gibbs What makes you think Debussy had the harp in mind? Not saying it doesn’t fit the harp, it certainly feels very natural, but as I’m sure you know it is written for the piano. Don’t you think that if he had the harp in mind he would have just written for harp?
@@iancollins407 yes I am aware that Debussy wrote this for piano, Mr. Collins. For starters Claire de Lune is a beautiful and delicate piece, hence me saying that the music lends itself to the harp. There are also examples of classical music crossing over to modern music. As example take Vivaldi's 4 seasons, predominantly written for the violin. Now go one step further, there is a young lady in France called Tina S. Her instrument is the electric guitar. She is what I would call a modern virtuoso playing guitar. My favourite composer is Vivaldi so when I came across Tina on UA-cam, I thought that it would be sacrilegious for her to play Vivaldi's 4 seasons. How wrong I was. That young lady blew me away with her amazing talent.
Sometimes it's good to go to a place to be reminded of what magnificent and beautiful things human beings are capable of doing.
Perhaps THE most beautiful pieces of music ever put to paper. And played masterfully by Miss Héloïse, so lovely. I honestly sat here thinking [oddly] that if we as a species were/are ever visited by "aliens", we need simply to play this for them to plead our case that we are capable of such beauty, enough to mercifully overlook our glaring faults.
Beautifully played!
woah, it's the guy who showed me how to use a clutch!
I love your socks :P
I saw your videos on how to hill start a manual xd
My workplace is closing because of post-covid internal reorganization. I haven’t seen my friends and family in months. Inside I feel such a burden. So I truly appreciate the great soothing value of music. This melody has truly helped me today.. no matter what is going on, I can find peace in its complexity and in the beauty of those timeless patterns. I feel healed. Grateful.
Hermetic Kitten ; MWAH 😘
Jesus can help take away that burden
Hey Kitten - I'm in the same situation; I worked for a hospital (non-clinical) here in Syracuse NY and they had to lay me off last year (pandemic related) as well as several others. I've been looking for work ever since. It has been lousy, BUT just remember this was beyond your control. I'm glad you were able to see solace in this music, and I hope you can find other avenues of happiness. Remember, you are NOT a burden to anyone. A "virtual" hug 🤗 for you (and hope you can find some comfort in that too.) Much peace and God Bless You 🌹

Her pace, rhythm and phrasing, as well dynamics are so beautiful, elegant, and angelically romantic. Sophisticated and soulful artist.
Tears in my eyes. Nothing ever sounded so beautiful in my lifetime. Thank you. This is music that would make God smile.
My thoughts and feelings exactly.
Quand le monde fléchit autour de soi, quand les structures d’une civilisation vacillent, il est bon de revenir à ce qui, dans l’histoire, ne fléchit pas, mais au contraire redresse le courage, rassemble les séparés, pacifie sans meurtrir. Il est bon de rappeler que le génie de la création est lui aussi à l’œuvre dans une histoire vouée à la destruction 👀
" Heureux les pauvres en esprit,
car le Royaume des Cieux est à eux.
Heureux les doux,
car ils recevront la terre en héritage.
Heureux les affligés,
car ils seront consolés.
Heureux les affamés et assoiffés de la justice,
car ils seront rassasiés. "
Matthieu 5, 3-12
@@thomaschabbear7605 oh, moi ma traduction de Ma Bible dis : "heureux ceux qui sont conscients de leurs besoins spirituels, puisque le royaume des cieux leur appartient. Etc..... Enfin ça dépends des traduction, évidemment ! 😁
Wtf ? Shut up please
@@adamdahmane2265 It's a French conversation. Since Debussy was French it's pretty normal. Now do yourself a favor, kiddo, and scram.
@@adamdahmane2265 No one likes you
I’m not crying... you’re crying. 😭😭 and whoever is the, at this moment, only person to dislike this, I’m sure it was only a slip of the thumb.
Exactly what I was thinking. How could she have done it any better?🥰
Their vision was blurred from the tears. Honest mistake.
They were all standing on their heads while watching this. They meant to give a thumbs up.
Those dislikes are bot. UA-cam has bot to disliking videos that had a lot of likes but dont have any dislike, cuz its impossible for human to disliking this great video, if its possible, the things that only can dislike this video is only bots an animals.
wow i love this, i honestly didn't connect in my brain that a piano is a string instrument until i heard this played on a harp. i'm so glad my seventeen left n right random streaming brought me here.
wait what fancy seeing a carat here !! clearly carats have superior taste in music haha
Wooo carats
oo hello fellow carats!! ♥
ayyy not full carat yet but damn left n rite is a bopp
lmaoooo
I was just playing this on the piano😂😍but it's so beautiful on the harp
I'm learning it on the piano, been practicing all day.
I'm learning it on the piano, been practicing all day
I’ve been learning it on the piano too. I’ve never thought about trying it on the harp but now I want to!
Time to switch.... haha
....and just when you think there's no joy left in the world, a familiar piece of music springs to mind and somehow you wind up here and get blown away by a truly wonderful rendition of it.
I don’t know which is the more beautiful here the young lady or her music? both I think😊👍🌹
So, this is what an angel looks and sounds like.

Clair de Lune has always been my favorite musical piece ever, such beauty and elegance
I’m starting school tomorrow and I got so stressed at the through of it that my chest started to hurt, my head was just pounding and I was cold sweating but when I saw your video while scrolling through UA-cam trying to find a distraction. I almost cried from relief the moment you started playing. I just want to say that you are an angel for being here and for sharing your talent. I know you get that a lot but you don’t know how much you mean to so many of us. 💖✨
I agree 💯 thanks for your vulnerability. I just realized you can’t spell “vulnerability” without “ability” so it’s basically a interpersonal superpower 🦸🏻♀️
You probably have high blood pressure
@@armand7926 thanks, might check it out 🤸🏻♀️❤️🔥
@@yun-shi1677 I could be wrong though
Years ago I wrote a fairly bad story which featured a character called Chris P. Bacon. Now I feel like he came to life and is watching UA-cam. Hi Chris!
I took 5 years of piano. My dad's finger gun at my head but the sweetest widow teacher. I won recitals. Haven't played a note since 1970 but the experience was priceless.
I haven't played a note on the piano since 1981 , after a brutal regime of putting my soul & energy into practise and playing for longer than I want to say .. I had an accident that damaged the nerves in the neck that control your fingers ... I can still feel the joy now and again of the pleasure of playing a piece of difficult music you worked so hard to learn .. Nothing in life has ever equaled that feeling .. Now I listen to the classical masters , close my eyes and watch my hands move across the keys .. God bless you Steve ,, maybe we will play again in heaven ..
There's so many little sections that sound so much more colorful on a harp. This was beautiful.
Flawless, played with such Elegance, Grace, & Finesse....
Absolutely Beautiful!✨
❤
La grâce incarnée. Merci Héloïse.
This is beautiful, thank you for sharing your gift ❤❤
i love your channel !!! so excited when i saw your comment!
This isn’t a “gift” its talent and hard work
As an amateur pianist, I spent months learning this piece. So when I see this, I not only hear the beautiful music, but I see the countless hours of work it took to get here.
Absolutely amazing!
So beautiful. She brought tears to my eyes as I listened to her fingertips glad across the strings. Just beautiful I could listen to her and her harp 24/7.
The sound and visual mastery here has caused me to cry.
As someone who's been playing the violin for quite some time now, I thought I had become numb to the feeling of looking at string based instruments and being at awe over their working and the quality of music they can produce in experienced hands.
Thanks for giving me that feeling again. Subscribed and looking forward to more :)
The piece of debussy has inspired me to practice playing it... Thank u...cause i feel happy wen i heard it....
I am a 30+ year old man and my jaws were dropped and had tears in my eyes barely halfway through your performance. Thank you.
This video is very full of comments that are very open about how this performance moved people, and I just wanted to reply to a random one to connect with. I feel it too.
Most excellent. you captured the subtleties. The softness, the hurriedness, the anxiety, the joy, the intrepidness, and everything else that Debussey put into this piece. stunning
Holy-smoke, what a wonderful performance. 😊
I automatically rose and almost started clapping at the end. In front of only my cats.
honestly a mood. except that it is past 1am for me and i no longer have pets:(
that is the best thing i have heard in a while
Cat opinions matter
I cried in front of my cat listening to this
Heloise. When I close my eyes and listen to your playing it makes me realize that music is a gift from God.
Matematics is the language of Nature. Music is its poetry.
I discovered this channel a few months ago when listening to clair de lune and then having as a suggestion your video of deux arabesque, since then I have followed your latest videos and admired this type of music more, but seeing this now, is just wow... thanks for your harp. Greetings from Peru and stay safe.
@Anthony Lopez thanks man, you stay safe too :)
@Anthonv Lopez tank man. vou stav safe too (:
Harp was never my favorite instrument, but your lovely playing made me stop and listen..beautifully playedm❤
Very easily one of the most touching renditions of this song to be found.
Maybe there's a reason that Angels are known to play Harps.
I think Debussy would be moved to rear the renditions of his music that you've done. He's one of my favorite composers and honestly I hadn't heard many of his compositions on harp until I came across your channel. I think your work is the perfect expression of his music and you should be proud of yourself for bringing this dimension to it.
As someone who played and studied the harp for7 years....OMG! What an amazing performance. Plus I admit I cried,this was my mother's and I favorite musical piece. I would sit under the piano as she practiced.
Beautiful!!!!
I always love the way you implement the dynamics and tempo rubato. It is so refreshing and inspirational.
my plan was to watch 5s but ended up watching the whole thing. just beautiful
I love watching the bass strings vibrate long after the note is played. It resonates. That is the difference between a stringed instrument (piano) and an electronic piano. Played with absolute grace.
I have been waiting for someone playing Claire de Lune as beautiful as you can do it :)
i've never seen someone that looks like they should play the harp as much as i see it being her instrument completely
Her name is beautiful as well.
absolutely breathtaking, I've never seen a harp performance in such a way that this has brought me to
She is simply
MAGNIFICENT.
Perfect. 💯 this is the first time I’ve heard this song any way besides piano and wow!! Absolutely gorgeous playing from this lovely person!! 🥰my ears and heart are so happy 🤩🫶
Claire de lune just sounds out of this world on the harp. My favorite instrument for this piece. ❤
I've been searching for this song over 10 years 😭😭 know I found it. Thanks Lord 😭🙏🏻
My sleep song when I was baby
Perfect,simply perfect.Thank you so much.
That was stupendous, far superior to piano versions, this has soul, like the classical guitar, the sound is in your soul. Life if full of amazing moments like this.
I LOVE this piece. Treasure Island, FL here. I listen to this music in the evening to help me relax. I just love the harp music and wish I would’ve played, but listening to it is just as nice. Thank you!
listening to this while the rain is pouring generously outside is a whole new different experience.
vontade chorar que coisa mais linda
this is too beautiful, I didn't pay for premium youtube
I recently heard an orchestral version of this piece. Plenty of sound, but didn't have the delicate magic of this performance.
Debussy with the guitar! My God... ❤Super. Love it.
A literal angel playing this music. So eloquently and beautifully. You’re incredibly talented, thank you for sharing this with the world !
i really must pay respects to the way you transform all of my favourite piano pieces flawlessly onto harp and make it so enjoyable and beautiful. what an artist
i've played this song on piano but now that i've heard this i think it sounds so much more beautiful on the harp wow wow wow
Absolutely beautiful. The harp was nice also 👌
One of my all-time favorites.
Thank you very much for the fine performance. Anthony
elegant finger work , enchanting sound
Playing Clair de Lune like Cziffra is extremely challenging. Yet so much more beautiful than anything else.
Absolutely divine!
Superbe et d'une maîtrise incroyable, plus belle pour moi que par le piano qui est également un instrument à cordes, comme quoi la vie et la musique nous apporterons toujours des surprises ❤
thanks youtube for recommending this to me
Éloïse you play devinely. I wasn't listening to clair de lune for à long time since it is so much played around and popular that I had enough. But literally you made my breath stop for a while listening to your magic interpretation, so sincere and actually "breathing". Thank you so much.
It's a good thing this is a video, you can just rewind it over and over :)
arpeggios are so awesome
I- “she’s really good” but seriously, she’s REALLY good. Thank you for this masterpiece ❤️
Beautiful 🎶🎵 and she makes it look so easy and she plays with such compassion.
Having listened to Clair de Lune many times by different performers, and Suite Bergemasque by a couple, I can say this is an amazing cover of this piece, and has been played quite expertly
My thoughts exactly!
It sounds beautiful, somehow warmer than a piano
Y E S ANOTHER POST FROM MY FAVOURITE HARPIST! You go Héloïse!!! WOO! :D
Just with a look at the title I knew how dreamy this video can be.
Is very beautiful. It touches the bottom of the soul.
I'm happy to reach this special moment.
My favorite classical song. So beautiful on the harp.❤
Oh my! Debussy's music is mesmerizing in the first place. But you my lady made it captivating as well. You had me for the whole ride. So well done and heart felt. The dynamics and rubato were superb! What a touch. Did I say that I really liked it?
Yeah its such a great piece. Such beauty. I wish i appreciated classical music when i was 5. Whats your favorite classical piece of all time?
@@Music-pc2we Oh my. I don't think I could name just one. Beethoven's Egmont, and his 5th would be up there as a great example of theme and variation, Mozart has several I love Including Eine Kleine Nachtmusik and symphony 40, Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake and Serenade for strings, Stravinsky's Firebird and Rite of Spring, Any Debussy of course is hard to beat. Mendelssohn's Italian symphony. I'd hate to have to pick just one.
@@BirdYoumans wow those are some really good options. Its hard for me to pick as well. I think debussy might be my favorite. Clair de lune, arabesque are beautiful.
No tengo palabras para decir lo hermoso que fue, es muy tranquilizador, fue bellísimo, muchas gracias por tu video.
That was flawless. Thank you for sharing your talent and passion. You have made the world a better place.
At the end of a bad day I always come back to this video to help me. Thank you
Beautiful performance. Thank You.
she's back
cheers form TX
you're an angel
Absolutely beautiful playing and interpretation as usual. I really hope you are putting out a CD of your collected harp music repertoire at some point. You are the most talented harpist I have ever heard.
It is suprising how the harp sounds so similar to a piano in the beginning! Very good video
MERCI.
So impossibly beautiful, like a heavenly dream . . .
Imma put this as my wake up alarm even though I know I'm going to go back to sleep bc this is so beautiful
Magnifique! I've been waiting for this piece since I heard you for the first time interpreting les deux arabesques four years ago..your music, more beautiful as time goes by, just like you
