Doing my bit to get you all into the Christmas spirit with a true classic by good old Tchaik! Ballet mesmerised me as a child and I remember many happy winter evenings dancing in my living room to his music. I have always loved tuned percussion and the celesta has forever been a firm favourite of mine. I get SO HAPPY every time it features in a piece or a film score. It was nice pretending to be one for this arrangement, although I don't know if I could ever be quite so twinkly.
I want to also dedicate this video to Peter Cunningham, one of the wonderful founders of British harp makers, Pilgrim Harps. Peter very sadly passed away recently after a battle with cancer - to honour his memory and support others who suffer this terrible disease, Pilgrim launched a Christmas Charity Video Campaign to raise money for Cancer Research in December which raised over £800 in Pete's honour - a great effort by UK harpists for a great man! RIP Pete.

I was excitedly waiting for 1:20.
RebeccaETripp hell yeah it's a banger 10/10 would watch the strings plucked again goosebump thrill ride
Me too
I simply go feral for the arpeggio in this song
Me too and I wasn't disappointed.
RebeccaETripp so was I !! 😂
Other than the fact that this piece was played very well. I think we need to highlight the fact that Amy has played some notes with accents along with some Umph.. I'm referring to the Staccato and Sharpness of each note. throughout the piece we notice lots of elegance accompanied by its appropriate speed and precision. This video clearly demonstrates talent , skill along with Many many years of practice. Please keep playing for us all to enjoy. Merry Christmas!!
Already on Repeat in my playlist. LOL =)
BufuGangsta let me see a video,of you playing the appropriate speed,as if their is recorded speed.your obviously, not a musician. lol!
her playing is flawless.
Amy's music has kept me calm for many occasions. When i find myself facing a long task ahead, i search a playlist from Amy and click play. This helps with productivity. I highly suggest this to others to try . Cheers.
BufuGangsta this is the effect of classical music 🎵👍
Another spectacular video. Thanks Mrs. Harpist!
Lord
I cant believ i got 1st comment here in the next 3 years.
I LOGE YOUR CHANNEL VINHETERIO I WATCHED YOU SINCE 2016 :D 🎹🎹🎹🎹
Ms or mrs harpist?
o my lord
Do nada o vinheteiro aqui kkjkjkjkjkjkk
Pero Vinheteiro, ¿Que estas haciendo aqui?
your Harp is cracking me up with its Christmas decorations on it.
I used to think doing this was really offensive but then I got over myself and reverted to what seven year old me would have thought! Plus now I get to buy my own tinsel and I thought this black and gold stuff was about as tasteful as I could get.
Amy Turk Why did you think it was offensive? I really have to hear this one. I played trumpet. I think it is silly when someone uses a plunger to mute it.
'The creative adult is the child who survived' Ursula Le Guin.
I think I understand what she means. It comes from the classical music education bubble.
Ms. Turk, not all classical music aficionados are stuck-up prudes. The garland just makes you more down to earth.
I LOVE everything about this. You are incredible!
Christine Salus I totally agree - and hello again!
Same!
Christmas Harp.... nothing better in the world.
Festive Yuletide to you!
As a H.I.T (harpist in training 😂) this is my absolute favorite classical piece and you are someone to look up to!
Astonishing. The fact that harp players are few and far between musicians makes it all the better. Still, it's your talent that makes this shine. Keep going, this is good stuff.
Been a guitar player for nearly 50 years. Watching Amy, I just realized, I am absolutely nothing.
If an alien came down, and wanted to hear some of our best music, I'd show him/it your videos.
YOU ASSUME AN ALIEN CAN'T BE A WOMAN?!!!!
@@blue_cameron No, women are "it's"
And the crazy thing is, no matter what race it was, they would be able to comprehend it as music, and *hopefully* even be pleased by it! Just like math, music is something universally understood I think.
SHOW ME WHAT U GOT..! XD
Who else was anxious about the harp tilting._.
I can't explain why this interpretation is so striking. But when she hits the "chord," it sends chills through my body!
Mucho dynamics.
I can feel the cold snow, see my breath, and smell the evergreens!
one of my favorite things to do is go through every arrangement and performance of a piece i can find to find the best one. this is definitely the best arrangement and the best performance. her precision, staccato, and dynamics are really quite flawless and so tastefully chosen, and this arrangement, sold on her website, is also the best. she adds some very notable details and chords/octaves that are missing from other arrangements that make them fall flat. those additions in her arrangement make it far more striking and accurate to the original. thank you again Amy for crushing it!
19 people need a Harp dropped on their foot, this is spectacular stuff :)
48 idiots who don't know how difficult it is to play the harp.
Kevin Martin - who cares??????
Kevin Martin oof
Make that 60, but let's save the harps and use boulders.
Now we can't tell because TH-cam won't show the dislikes so that people won't get "butt-hurt" from the "negative comments". Boo....hoo....hoo....
Grow a spine you whiny ❄️s.
Such passion!!! I love her!!! She's great 😻
Thanks for sharing this. It's amazing just how expressive an instrument the harp is, especially when played masterfully by someone like yourself.
Fantastic performance!!! It reminds me of Walt Disney's FANTASIA. His masterpiece..Congratulations, Amy
I love this fairy song, and this was its most beautiful rendition (from a fairy)! :-)
Love the way that you play it, so true and expressive, masterpiece played by a master :D
Perfectly controlled dynamics
I keep wondering who would dare to put a dislike to something as beautiful as this. There are ALWAYS those, who oppose all that is good and worthwhile. We are deeply touched by the beauty of this piece and the excellency of this performance and interpretation. Thank you, Amy. Our pianist daughter has just begun her harp lessons, and your art will be a mighty source of inspiration for her. Keep up the good work!
Sweet!
Your neighbors must love living next door to you.
lol, we would love it! 😂🤣
Truly beautiful performance Amy, and a very fitting tribute to Peter Cunningham.
Thanks! He was a wonderful man.
Tchaikovsky would love it
The sound quality!
Even listening to this with only the speaker of my phone is incredible!
Out of all harp arrangements for this piece, this has to be my favorite for the dynamics
Well done .. love it Thank you for posting
Absolutely flawless, it sounds great! Thanks for the video.
Outstanding body stability.
Amazing! What a talented musician ❤️
Absolutely stunning ❤️ you've got such an incredible musicality I'm forever in awe

Dear Amy...🌸 I admire your talent... Listening to your music everyday is a bliss... Please come to Turkey Istanbul...🙋💖🌸
Every time I watch you I see a mermaid playing the harp. Magical
The most elevating sensational piece I know, played by the most exquisite harpist I know of. Thankyou for a lifetime.
It's amazing how well this works on a harp.
Lady Amy Turk, nothing better than this Song to begin being anxious about Christmas! Merry Christmas for us all! Thx so much Amy!
I love how you put the little garland around your harp!!! Beautifully played thank you!!!
I use the recording of this which I purchased at Amazon as my new wake up alarm. What a wonderful way to start my days!
Followed hear for 12 years or so. Much enjoyed her performances

This is phenomenal! I particular enjoy the sforzandos and your amazing use of dynamics and colors in the rising arpeggios at 1:20. Thanks for what you do!
Brava an excellent interpretation and playing.
She plays amazing and those lights on the wall is nice

I have been playing harp for a years and Amy's talent far exceeds most harpists. Her playing is graceful to watch and captivates me till the end. Just AMAZING. I inspire to be............. 🎶 better than today. Please keep playing, I love listening.

Awesome, as always :-) I really like this arrangement, especially the middle section - really pretty, yet dramatic at times. Loving the tinsel too! x
4 years late and my words cannot express how cool this is to me, IT SOUNDS SO MAGICAL!!
Beautifully done. Your talent is amazing!
i KNEW that playing it on harp will give it a more dark vibe. It's great 👏👏👏

It's that time of year again! Beautifully played!
spettacolo puro, complimenti. Brava brava brava.

I don't how which is better listening to it being played or watching how it's played.
Just what I wanted hear before Christmas! Thanks!
This is dreamy, imaginary and absolutely sublime 😍
crisp like no other ...This would be my metronome.
woooow, nice decoration.....i like that song and you play it good
Amazing!! Perfectly arranged/rehearsed, and so wonderfully executed! This is real music!
Thank you for this beautiful performance Amy
Of all the harp players I listen you are the best, thank you for recording.
WOW!! Perfect intonation and very well done. I normally do not listen to non-orchestral pieces. But this! I did not miss the symphony at all.
It behooves me as to how someone can hit the dislike button on this video. Simply enchanting. Perfectly executed. Thanks for sharing with us.
Amy really puts 120% of herself into her playing. I think she's the most expressive harpist I've ever seen. On a superficial note, I love her long hair. :)
looping this one for the 10th time..so Magical
Favorite song and a gorgeous woman. Great vid!
May God bless you miss wonderful!
Beyond immagination.....
