I’ve loved learning about Ancient Greece and music history, and I finally got a lyre today. I’m so excited to learn, thank you for the tutorial!
So glad you found it helpful!
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
@@SamanthaonMars Why are you playing one octave higher than normal human singing range? Your lyre should sound better when played one octave lower.
@@set3777 The lyre sounds better in real life than captured on a phone, LOL. My phone collected the higher notes better so I guess that's why. Same reason why I played on a table (I play upright most of the time), to allow the sounds to bounce from the table to the phone.
@@SamanthaonMars Thanks.
I was just wondering why you did not play from G3 to A4 to get more resonance. I think you were playing from G4 to A5 so I thought the sound was too metallic.
I only have a "box type" lyre so I don't know the sound of a bowl type lyre in real life.
I'm learning lyre for venti and for my mental health and self esteem the music is so calming and learning how to play will boost my self esteem definetly
Hello! Oh yes, playing the lyre has so many benefits! Never before had I imagined something as daunting as starting a TH-cam channel, and here I am! I hope the lyre brings you hours of fun and enjoyment!
@@SamanthaonMars thank you
Venti summoning ritual..
fellow genshin player i see
same bc I love him sm
Not me learning the lyre for venti💀, he better come home🛐
JSJDJS IM LEARNING BECAUSE WE HAVE THE ITEM
@@reguriflop I just got it and I’m so confused
I’m learning just because I love him, I already have him.
I spent over 8000+ primo gems on him😭😭

Thank you for this. I was reading my Bible the other day and in Psalms it mentioned a 10 string lyre. I thought hmm I have never really had any musical background but thought I will buy 16 string lyre and then came across this. I played amazing grace to my sweet mother in law. She loved it. God Bless.
Is it easy ? I have no musical knowledge or played any instruments is it easy for a poor beginner like me to??
@mariarufina8396 Yes, just got mine today, very nice progression, I've been learning Dragonborn Comes
Learning amazing grace. Just got my lyre today. So excited to learn how to play and I hope I can use my lyre to glorify God. Thank you for this video
I'm learning and it's difficult finding tutorials for the Lyre. So, thank you for this! They are the ones I wanted to play. And I checked to see if you had continued with your postings.- and you have. So I subscribed. You are a Gem.
Thank you, Angel! :)
Decided to learn the lyre because of dnd and it sounds really pretty. I have 5 songs I know now and I look forward to learning more. Thank you!
Some people do come here because of D&D. I'm glad my videos helped!
Thank You! It was explicitly straight to the point, concise and we got five songs in one lesson. Your voice is very pleasant, I looking forward to find more of your videos. Blessings.
Thank you so much!
Could you please make a full tutorial on Ode to Joy or some kind of tavern/medieval song? My Lyre just arrived and it calms me so much when in stress even if I just strum randomly. I would love to learn the instrument but there are no good tutorials for it or tabs or anything. Pretty please?
Hi Kamil. Playing the lyre calms me too! There's something magical about the sounds. Sorry I don't know any tavern / medieval songs, but I can make a separate video on Ode to Joy. What do you mean by "full tutorial"? Like with harmony? What would you like to see? =)
@@SamanthaonMars Hi! Any tutorial you will do will surley help me out greatly . Compose what youre comfortable with. Im just a beginner and youre the expert :D.
@@iamkamx5172 I'm no expert, LOL. I just started last month. Here's the Ode to Joy tutorial: th-cam.com/video/hNtcvJyS0eo/w-d-xo.html
Im here cuz venti also want to learn lyre for venti too 🙂 thx for the tutorial
Love this..... a great way to help people learn something straightaway and thereby giving them a sense of achievement!!!! Thank you so much!!!!! 🙂

Haha im also here bc of genshin impact! My mom said she'll give me a lyre on christmas and im currently looking for easy songs to play and i found this ^^ I fawking love it
That's cool! I got some Genshin songs on my channel. Welcome to check them out!
I recently got one of this for my birthday 🥳 and im so happy i found you thank u for this tutorial please upload more!!!
I love it :') I was looking for this. Currently, players can get a basic lyre in Genshin Impact and I wanted to try 😅
Nice! Personally, I think the ones in Genshin Impact are prettier 😂
The harp and kalimba.. Matches and synchronizes its letter chords.. Just as my discoveries
I agree. The lyre harp and the kalimba are quite similar!
yes!!
My lyre finally came! Tuning it sucked but I’m so happy
ventiiiiiii :D
Thank you, this really helped give me some understanding about how the harp lyre functioned, and how accessible it could be, even for a complete beginner.
Got my aklot 16 today so practicing your 5 songs love it. Thanks for inspiring me Samantha and managed to tune it as you said via app. I'm over the moon.
Hi Colleen. Welcome on board! I'm so happy you've been inspired. :D
Thank you for sharing this teaching video with us. I love it. I have never played any instrument. It is really hard to find teaching videos for the lyre harp. Waiting for more great videos.
This was an excellent tutorial and I appreciate that you have given me the notes so that I can practice. I hope to find more tutorials by you.
Thank you. Take a look at my other videos. I started not long ago so there isn't a lot but I'll be posting more.

Thank you for sharing. I just received my Lyra and looking forward to learning to play it.q
Thank you for doing this Samantha...putting the key notes on the face-page is great and helps us to learn. I bought a 7 string Lyre last year and had no idea how to tune or play it...thanks so much for this, now I can learn.

Very good Samantha I'm looking for another challenge so am considering learning the lyre harp. Thanks so much for your tutorial explained perfectly 😀
Thanks!
Beautiful!!!
Thank you, Laura!!
Thank you. It was good. But I have the F tuned to F#, so I could not correctly play one of the songs. But that is a simmple fix. Thank you again!
Thank you! My lyre is tuned to C major in this video. Sometimes I tune to G major like you too, as it fits some tunes better.
I can’t find any other videos like this at all, it’s just a bunch of people showing off without even listing the chords, thanks for the video and hope that more are to come!
Thank you for coming here! I'm definitely going to make more videos. :) Feel free to look around my channel for different types of songs I cover.
that was great thanks...

I got a lyre for my birthday; haven’t played genshin in months but it’s cool that added that feature

Thank you for sharing this I’m new to the Lyre Harp but I can learn these two before Christmas for both my mum & pops as the Sunsets over the Horizon on both their Birthday’s as well as Amazing Grace which was also actually mum’s name god bless you for sharing this kind regards Martin
Hi Martin! It's great to see you again. Last time you said you were looking for the right instrument. Have you found it yet? Learning and playing songs in memory of your parents sound like a beautiful tribute. Wishing you strength as you play. Take care.
Hi Samantha,
I really love your 5 easy songs to learn too, I'm hopping you make more of this ones please, I'm enjoying learning from them.
Thank you so much for your considerations for your new students, particularly me,
Amy
Thank you! Will do! :)

Thank you. I found this very helpful. I bought a lyre harp recently and had no idea where to start. This has been very helpful! :)
Thank you🙏🖒
Very nice
This is so good! Please make more tutorials! I am getting a lyre soon! Where did you buy your song books?
Hi Heather. I don't have any song books. Mostly I just play by ear. For more complex songs, like those in my other videos, I look up sheet music and then convert them to notes.
@Cooper Duncan no advertising
@@SamanthaonMars can you explain how you do this? I'd love to know as I just bought a lyre :)
@@SamanthaonMars Would it maybe be possible for you to cover how you turn sheet music into notes for the lyre? I recently purchased one and this would be super helpful since songbooks for the lyre aren't really a thing. Or even any tips on how to do it ourselves. Tysm!
when your here because you just felt like it- AND NOW YOUR IN ANOTHER PHASE 'addicted to harps even tho you will probably never get one' PHASE
More of the same please! Great video!
thanks for the videos
Glad you like them!
Thanks😊
You're so welcome! :)
You're so good😍
I hope I can learn how to play a lyre, too
Thank you! =)
That was hilarious. the sound of silence. Thank you for making these videos. I appreciate the help.
Thank you 🥰
thank you
You're welcome :)
A few more would be really helpful ❤❤❤

Merci, c’est super bien
You're welcome 😃
I am so appreciative of your content. Thank you so much for this! One thing I noticed: The final note of Auld Lang Syne is supposed to be a "C'" not "A" as written on the screen. :) Thank you again.
Thank you for pointing that out! ❤ When I first started creating videos, I used to manually type the notes onto my phone screen where I edited my videos. It never occurred to me that I could simply copy and paste the notes. Hence the mistakes. Silly me! 😅
Hi there! Your videos are lovely and so informative. I'm about to acquire my very first lyre, and it seems like resources are limited out there, so it's wonderful to have found your channel. I do have a newbie question. Do you or anyone else that writes out the notes like this have a way to notate how long each note is held for? I know in sheet music it is, but when notes are written out simplistically like this, do you have ways of showing how long each note is? Or is it more interpreted just by listening when learning this way? Hopefully my question makes sense!😅
Hi! Thank you so much for your kind words! Your question makes perfect sense. You're correct that when the notes are written out simple like this, the duration of each note is not specified, and is usually interpreted by listening. Having the notes written alongside the lyrics can be helpful, and I provide that on my Patreon for songs with lyrics. However, for precise indications of the duration of each note (and each pause), sheet music is the best way to go. 😊
thank you very much this is very instructive please teach another songs.
Thank you! I have other videos on my channel. Feel free to check them out =)
aldın mı mini arp ?
Woww amei esse canal ,quero muito comprar uma lyre😭❤️
Obrigada. Eu espero que você consiga um algum dia. (using Google translate 😊)
Obrigada ❤❤❤❤
You're welcome. You're so nice!
I've seen multiple people in the comment secotion on this channel ask "can you play this song on a seven string lyre?" The answer is yes. (I will be posting this comment on every video so everyone can see it).
I had the same problem so I tuned my lyre to be E F G A B C D so I'd be able to play *almost* any song on this channel. The only problem in tuning the lyre this way is that you can't play 2 of the same notes on the lyre on higher cords.
Example: (G G') When that happens just play the singular G note.
if it looks like this: G G' -Just play the G note twice
It works but you may have to occasionally tune the cords for certain songs that are higher or lower pitched of your song. This way works (for most songs)and I know because I learned a few songs already!
I bought a mini kinnor are the notes the same thank you very much for your help Jackie in FL
The number of strings and the tuning determine what songs you can play. I'm not familiar with the mini kinnor, but if you can tune it to the same notes in this video, you may be able to play the same songs
Thank you
This is really helpful. Can you some video on saint seiya anime that some of the ost are play on lyre but it abit difficult to learn on my own. Thank you in advance
Oh, I didn't see your message until now. No idea why YT didn't notify me. I'll check out the OST of the anime
Thank you for sharing! I am looking to buy a lyre harp, but there seem to be a lot of knock-off brands online, and I can't find any in stores. What brand is yours?
You're so welcome! Most people buy their lyres online. Mine is an Aklot from Amazon. Here's the link: amzn.to/3eDe1QG. You may also want to check out this video from "Learning The Lyre Harp". She talks about choosing a lyre for beginners: th-cam.com/video/FEljH7ax1Cs/w-d-xo.html
Hello! I have been thinking about getting a Lyre Harp, and really like the one you have in the link in the comments. I was wondering if the harp came with engravings for the strings or if you purchased stickers for it. I really want to get a harp with the lettering on it because I feel that it would be easier to learn. Please let me know!
Hi. I think it's easier to learn with the notes written out too! My 16-string lyres from Aklot all came with the notes engraved. However, it's been a while since I got them so I suggest checking the latest product description and pictures because the manufacturer might have changed the design since then.
@@SamanthaonMars Ok, Thank you for your help!
Wow is amazing grace really an easy song to learn I can't sing maybe I'll buy one all angs ine too wow
Love to hear Psalms of David on it
Hi David. Welcome to my channel!
Amazing Grace is an easy song to learn. This video shows how to play the melody. Once you're more familiar with playing the song, you may add harmonies or accompaniments to the melody, like in this more advanced version of Amazing Grace: th-cam.com/video/RrFWPlgPit0/w-d-xo.html .
beutiful, happen to know any good resources for a 10 string?
Hi Lisa. Sorry I don't. I only have a 16 string lyre and a 7 string that is pentatonic.
Haz mas, por favor!

Amazeing very gratefull for your video up load very clear speech and good direction in teaching very professionally done.Would recommend you do more as you have real talent for teaching
Thank you for the compliment! I'm glad you find the video helpful!
I love this. I'm a devotee of Apollo, so I'm looking to buy a lyre to dedicate to him. Do you know where I could buy an not too expensive lyre?
Hello Jacob. I got mine on Amazon. My model is this: amzn.to/3eDe1QG . There are many options on Amazon alone so be sure to look around. I know some are also sold on Aliexpress and Shopee if you buy from these sites. =)
@@SamanthaonMars thankyou!!
thank you, nice and clear and straight forward. mbirajean
❤❤
Apaixonada por esse canal. Você toca todas as músicas que eu amo ❤😢. Comprei uma harpa Lira dessa e estou esperando chegar, esse canal caiu como uma luva para mim, vou aprender com seus vídeos. 😊
Você tocaria a Ave Maria com Acordes? 😊
Wow, thank you for the comment! That's fantastic to hear. You have a beautiful heart. Do you mean the Ave Maria from Shubert?
@@SamanthaonMars
Exatamente, Ave Maria Schubert. 🙂
i immediately get my kalimba and try the tabs wtf
What brand of lyre harp do you recommend for us beginners to buy? Is it easy to learn this instrument by hearing music then making one? Thanks 😊
Hi. I've only ever used Aklot (16 strings) and Donner (7 string), and I can say they make pretty good lyres for their price points. There are other brands out there so be sure to check around. The number of strings is also an important consideration. 16 is a good range for beginners, or maybe even 19. I think it's quite easy to play the lyre by ear because it's a diatonic instrument. It simplifies playing by having only the white keys of the piano. It can be a drawback sometimes but overall the lyre is easier than many other instruments. Hope it helps. :)
@@SamanthaonMars aww thanks a lot. I've been using a xylophone ever since I entered high school. And I think it's an easy instrument. I'm thinking of buying a lyreharp probably by next year. Have a great day ahead! Enjoy! 😊
