An uplifting channel of beautiful harp music by Irish Harpist Aisling Ennis. Our aim is to provide you with relaxing and uplifting videos to brighten up even the dullest of days!!
Bounce Project 2021: Harp and Parkour Collaboration & Development with Glenn McMahon
This video was recorded in September 2021 to document the development of a collaboration between myself and Glenn McMahon. Thanks to support from the Arts Council of Ireland through their Agility award, myself and Glenn were able to meet several times to exchange ideas and to develop ways in which a future collaborative piece might take shape.
We hope this video inspires fellow musicians to collaborate beyond their current scope. We had great fun finding a common language and look forward to working together in the future.

I never felt magic crazy as this I never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea I never held emotion in the palm of my hand Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree But now you're here Brighten my northern sky. I've been a long time that I'm waiting Been a long that I'm blown I've been a long time that I've wandered Through the people I have known Oh, if you would and you could Straighten my n...

Twinkle Bye for solo harp by Aisling Ennis, Video by Ger Holland
zhlédnutí 439Před 3 lety
Ger shared this gorgeous, muted sunrise recently and it made me reflect on how close the sunrise is to the sunset, and how the horizon, for me, is letting go of yesterday whilst embracing the newness of today. I found myself searching around the beautiful lullaby Twinkle Twinkle and trying to resolve for myself where it should sit. I have shared this musical musing in its rawest form, no tweaki...

beautiful playing and one of the best channel names out there
The harp that once through Tara's halls The soul of music shed, Now hangs as mute on Tara's walls, As if that soul were fled. So sleeps the pride of former days, So glory's thrill is o'er, And hearts, that once beat high for praise, Now feel that pulse no more. No more to chiefs and ladies bright The harp of Tara swells; The chord alone, that breaks at night, Its tale of ruin tells. Thus Freedom now so seldom wakes, The only throb she gives, Is when some heart indignant breaks, To show that still she lives.
Hi Aisling, you play it beautifully! Where could I find the sheet music? Thank you and a kiss from Argentina ❤
Wow
Beautifully played!
Dearest Aisling; I still adore you and am listening with sadness in 2023, my dear friend. 😔😔
Wonderfully played. So talented. The music is in your soul.
Very Nice.
There are two Galway girl songs,. You should have mentioned that this is Sharon Shannon & Steve Earle Galway Girl.
So beautiful! I would like to play this as a two person duet. Do you have the music?
Love it, just waiting for Steve Carell to walk in. Wpuld be great to hear the UK versiin on harp too!!! Let's catch up soon, been way too long
Nailed it! Love the guitar solo part ❤
Very lovely hit on harp its very lovely
Lovely! Thank you so much.
Beautiful! You should have more followers.
Very beautiful Do you you sell your scores?
Beautiful 💙🙏
Please publish the sheet music!!! so beautiful 😍
Beautiful music and interpretation! Thank you for attention on CZcams! 🎶🎵🎼🎸🤗👋👏😀💐🎸😀👏🤗
Thank you for posting this, dearest Aisling! 😘🌹 But thanks even more for recording all the Harp O'Clocks and letting all us participants view them in private! Massive Hugs and Tender Kisses from Omaha to Wicklow! 🤗🥰
Hi there, Aisling! This is wonderful! 🍀💚🎶 I thought I already commented, but I reckon that was in Face Book! 😉🥰😘
Excellent arrangement!
Beautiful! Did you have the sheet music for this?
You did a really good job!
This was a wonderful surprise and a great help easing the holiday stress. Once again Best wishes to you and your family for a Blessed Christmas and a bountiful New Year!🌠 🎄 😘♥
Dear Aisling, this is gloriously beautiful and peaceful. You are especially gorgeous in that red gown! 💃💖💋 Much love, Mícheál
Wonderful Aishling, I love the duet with yourself.
Wow that was amazing! Did you have the sheet music available?
Would it be possible to get a recording of this for my wedding?
What a stunning creation! This so evocative in it's content and presentation. It is at once modern and kinetic with a bit of mysticism woven throughout. It is especially engaging to see Emily's aerial dance filmed through the strings of the harp. It forges a connection and helps to show the harp as a living being rather than presenting it as static object waiting for someone to engage with it. And I also really enjoy the extreme closeups that pull back just enough to show the passion in your eyes and the emotion on your face as you play. The smile that beams from your face is proof enough of the power of music and art to touch the spirit and move us.
Thanks so much Zach for this beautiful comment. I really enjoyed the collaboration and it was lovely to create this piece for National Harp Day
This is a stunning video. I absolutely love everything about it.... The music, movement, words, direction, filming... It's perfection 👌👏👏👏
Thanks so much Beth ❤️💜
A beautiful collaboration between you and the dancer . And the story tellers ability to make you feel the journey of the poor hare. 👏👏👏
What a beautiful piece Aisling : )
Thanks so much 🙃
Thank you! ❤️💜
It's as if I can see each note you play with everyone of Emely's movement. WONDERFUL AISLING!!!!!! 👏👏👏👏💓💓💓💓
Thanks so much Santo ❤️💜💙
I've met some folks Who say that I'm a dreamer And I've no doubt There's truth in what they say But sure a body's bound to be a dreamer When all the things he loves are far away And precious things Are dreams unto an exile They take him over The land across the sea Especially when it happens he's an exile From that dear lovely Isle of Inisfree And when the moonlight Peeps across the rooftops Of this great city Wondrous though it be I scarcely feel it's wonder or it's laughter I'm once again back home in Inisfree I wonder over green hills Through dreamy valleys And find a peace, no other land would know I hear the birds make music fit for angels And watch the rivers laughing As they flow And then into a humble shack I wander My dear old home and tenderly behold The folks I love Around the turf fire gathered On bended knee Their rosary is told But dreams don't last Though dreams are not forgotten And soon I'm back to stern reality But though they pave The foot ways here with gold dust I still would choose my Isle of Inisfree
This is a really neat collaboration. It has a sense of whimsy and fun about it, mainly because it looks like you're on the set of some sort of children's program where the main character is a mad scientist. But the music itself is really chill and relaxing. It's present enough to keep attention, but it allows the mind to go for a ramble. Really well done.
Thanks Zach! glad you enjoyed :)
Alrighty then, Aisling and ZOiD; here we are 4 HOURS after LIVE ACTION, and I FINALLY watched and listened the the 20 minute performance. You ready for my review? First of all, Przemyslaw Barszczewski is either MORE Polish than Olenka and I combined, or those are the letters I read 24 days ago on the Doctor's Eye Chart before my surgery. 😏 Now for the individual grades: Aisling = 100% or an A+. ZOid = 94% or an A. Sadly, Zimmy did very little, so I give him a Low Grade of 63%, or D-. IMHO, he was really just a spectator and could have been sitting on the lap of the woman in front who wore a Polar-Bear fur coat. 🐻 I spent half the concert worrying that some activist was gonna spray red spray-paint all over her outer garment, thus ruining the occasion. 🙈 So harpy that never happened. Anyway, I digress. I am not counting Zimmy, since he did not perform up to his ablilities. Therefore, I give the TWO performers an average of 97% which is indeed an A+. 👏👏👏👏 One more thought about Zimmy: would his trainer please teach him to smile more? His blank stare kinda creeps me out a wee bit. 😱😱 Moving on...Aisling, the 2nd hand smoke from the smog machine was directed at you. I am therefore considering a "class-action" suit. Would you approve of that? If I do, do I file against Ballybla House or the Arts Council of Ireland? 🍀🍀 Thanks so much, Aisling and ZOiD! 🤗🤗 Please do not show my review to Zimmy; okay? 😬😬 I know he tried, and put in a LOT of practice for this awesome event, and NEVER would I wish to discourage him in his career. Love to all, Mícheál 💚💖
😂very funny review, thanks for watching! I won't show it to Zim-zim, don't worry.
I watch and listen to, unfortunately a repetition. Superbs.
Thanks Olenka!😀
Dearest Olenka, to me a repetition is not unfortunate. I will repeat this many times! 😍 Maybe the Blasters can come visit you in Poland, before they tour the USA! 🥰
How is everyone getting on? :)
I HOPE there is a REPLAY - I JUST got here and this is almost over??? 😭😭
