I was glad to see Fimnora’s Monday Music Medicine Show back with us this week! I know she’s been busy keeping up with the Blogging from A to Z April Challenge. She made it! Yay!!!
So this week Fim wants to know, “Have you found something new, or rediscovered an old musical love lately?”
She posted some beautiful pan flute music from Zamfir. I love his stuff! But a sound that’s been drawing me for along time that I haven’t listened to for awhile is the Celtic Harp.
A true Celtic Harp can be small enough to sit in your lap, but they come in all sizes. They have wire strings, and were used in the folk and early music of Scotland and Ireland. I have some beautiful harp cd’s. The music is great to chill out by without having to know the words!!!

Oh! How wonderful! For all sprites to flit from flower to flower, and twirl and swirl! Plus the fact that she’s playing it out ‘communing with the Green Ones!’ is so marvelous. Mr. Quantum said it was really nice, as well! 🙂 Loving having such terrific music here at The Show. 🙂

I think I like Celtic Harp because it has a way of latching onto your soul and slowing it right down. I’m glad Mr. Q liked it!!!

Do you know Laurel Emrys? I think hers was the first Celtic Harp music I ever heard. I bought a tape of hers and listened to it over and over. It’s very soothing and relaxing (and good for studying or other mental work!)

Hey Karen! Sorry for the delayed answer. I had gone “fishing” for a couple days! But no, I haven’t heard of her. What was the name of the tape you bought. I’ll have to look it up. I, too, find I can just let my mind go when I’m listening to harp music. It’s a little like listening to angels. 🙂
