Exploration in C Minor ~ Mournful Melancholy

Late Nite Harp ·

2020/10/21

Hello lovely people, I’ve been digging into chord progression and key signatures recently. Exciting stuff hey!? Even though I’m musical, I’ve always found the theory side boring and a challenge, so I just play for pleasure and search for nice sounds without knowing too much about exactly what’s going on in the nitty gritty world of music theory. But I’m delving deeper now and in this piece I explore some chords that work nicely together in C minor. That means all the levers are down on my

Beija-Flor - Hummingbird (Kiss Flower)

Late Nite Harp ·

2020/09/28

In my twenties I spent many hours singing the most beautiful Brazilian songs from the Rainforest. Funnily enough I discovered them when I took a rickshaw ride in Holland and the dutch person driving was singing one of the songs. Talk about fate! I was hooked for ten years. Then I stopped singing them as life changed direction and danced to a different rhythm and they slept in my heart. Now they’re awakening once more and I’m excited to sing them again and play them on the harp. These

Hold Me ~ Sacred Voice and Gentle Harp

Late Nite Harp ·

2020/07/02

I’m experimenting with building sound and drama into my pieces. Less is more in my opinion but even still, trying to decide what to keep in and leave out is challenging sometimes. I enjoy the simple beginning in this one and I love singing it so much. Hope you enjoy listening.Hold Me - by Holly ★ Support this podcast ★

Lotus Flower ~ Rich, Sparkly Harp

Late Nite Harp ·

2020/06/13

A saturday afternoon jam session exploring strings - making them twang, searching out patterns, going up to the high notes, trying not to lose my trail, my musical adventure. I never quite know what I’m gonna get when I start. Where I’m going to go. Adding another layer to twirl and swirl with the melody is a lovely experience. I love the richness and sparkles. ★ Support this podcast ★

Cookie Cat ~ Melancholic Lullaby

Late Nite Harp ·

2020/05/30

This is my ode to Cookie the cat. A dear sweetie I looked after on my housesitting adventures. I met her three times and it was always lovely to see her. She got poorly on my last visit and that was hard to see. I’m not very good when animals get sick. It makes me so sad especially when there’s nothing you can do for them. But I’ll always remember her as a green eyed darling, loving strokes and lap time. And that last meal of chicken broth she ate was an absolute joy for her. After so long

São Damião by Keila ~ A Santo Daime Healing Song

Late Nite Harp ·

2020/04/18

Day 30!!! Made it and feeling elated. Woo hoo! It’s been a great experience making a song a day. I would highly recommend it. Sometimes I wanted to scream, sometimes I did scream, sometimes I was so sleepy at 11pm trying to get the levels right and sometimes that led to a little frustration. But along with all those things I feel like I’ve achieved something super special. I’ve got many of my own songs out there now. And that feels fantastic. They’ve been waiting patiently in books for so

Come Feel ~ Healing Voice, Healing Harp

Late Nite Harp ·

2020/04/17

Day 29. Getting close now…This song is inspired by a very beautiful Throes of Dawn track, The Understanding. It’s a prog metal album which is dear to my heart (and one of the few I can listen to because it doesn’t having the screaming vocal style in it). The whole album is such a journey and the guitar riffs out of this world. This is a snippet of a melody (starting at 1m30 on the track) which I made into something new. I love the space in it. As well as the bass. I love a bit of bass!Happy

Little Bird Flying ~ A Song of Visions & Healing

Late Nite Harp ·

2020/04/16

Woah, this one was bigger than I thought, though I shouldn’t have been surprised. For me this song has the biggest emotional effect on me out of all my songs. I wrote it after seeing a documentary about these sweet geese who take a massive life threatening flight over mountains to reach new pastures. I’m a bit weepy when it comes to nature documentaries and this song was born out of the spirit of struggle and determination. It’s not only the bird who has challenges but all of us! We’re all

I Drew ~ Sweet, Simple, Sparkly Lullaby

Late Nite Harp ·

2020/04/15

This is another early song I learnt on my harp. I remember making it so complicated for myself when I put the musical notes on paper and then struggled to follow my own composition. I felt blocked by what I’d written down. That was when I realised I didn’t need to sight read and follow a definitive pattern anymore. I discovered I could flow freely and improvise the notes as long as I had the chord progression. It was a revelation.I grew up only being able to sight read on my violin (with no

Safe in the Night ~ Calming Lullaby

Late Nite Harp ·

2020/04/14

Waaa I’ve had a super busy day recording fun, exciting material (for my new children’s podcast) so I only started recording this at 7pm. Very late for me. But it turned out quite nicely. This is the first song I played when I started learning the harp. Before then it was just me and my voice. So this song is extra special to me.Fav line - ‘My sweet bed of stars’.Song by Holly.Day 26 - A song a day. ★ Support this podcast ★

You’ll Always Be ~ Sweet & Romantic

Late Nite Harp ·

2020/04/10

This song is all about love. A celebration of being in love. With a special someone. And maybe they’re not even on this plain anymore. Maybe they’re flying high somewhere else. But love crosses worlds and ether. Love is love. Love will always be there. Isn’t that wonderful?Day 22 - A song a day. ★ Support this podcast ★
