    That's great music alright. I dont think I've ever heard the harp being used to play any other than Irish music before. It really sounds good in this context.

    That's what I thought myself, although I've heard it in the classical context as well, but it certainly does sound incredibly good here, and it's always a joy to hear instruments that you don't normally think of used in music, makes it that bit more interesting.

    There's another one for ya, My Favourite Things by Dorothy Ashby. She was a relatively well-known jazz harpist in the 60s. Some of her more up-tempo swinging pieces are up on youtube aswell.

    Of the Jap harpists stuff, I don't like the first two but the third one is great. It's a little less jazzy and a bit more classical but for me that's the way a harp sounds good. Good bassist too, really made the first two sound more like jazz.
    :pac:
