When anyone plays the harp really well, as this young woman does, I always think of "liquid silver." I've thought that all my life (and I'm almost 70)---it's just the most beautiful image and I can't explain how the silver makes the music, but it's what I see every time.

This is an original translation of Verlaine's poem, from French to English. I opted for eight syllables of iambic tetrameter, and (like Verlaine), I gave it an ABAB rhyme scheme. Thematically, and in imagery, it's pretty close to the original. If you look closely, you'll see a tribute to Coleridge. Enjoy! MOONLIGHT Your sacred soul a chosen land, Of music, masquerade, and dance. They play the lute, and kiss the hand -- With saddened hearts, they seek romance. A minor key unlocks a song, Of love and life and lonely eyes. The music whispers loud and long, Of weeping moon and paradise. The moon is sad and bright and clear, And sings the nightingale to sleep. The fountains cry with joyful tears, While sleeping marble statues weep.

I am always a bit biased when it comes to hearing Heloise play the harp. Not only is her playing exquisite but all the music she plays is perfectly suited to the harp. Whenever I listen to Heloise I completely in her thrall. To see her delicate fingers caressing the strings to produce magical sounds. I also think that debussy had the harp in mind when he wrote claire de lune. Thank you Heloise for your beautiful playing.

Brian Gibbs What makes you think Debussy had the harp in mind? Not saying it doesn’t fit the harp, it certainly feels very natural, but as I’m sure you know it is written for the piano. Don’t you think that if he had the harp in mind he would have just written for harp?
@briang.4249

@@iancollins407 yes I am aware that Debussy wrote this for piano, Mr. Collins. For starters Claire de Lune is a beautiful and delicate piece, hence me saying that the music lends itself to the harp. There are also examples of classical music crossing over to modern music. As example take Vivaldi's 4 seasons, predominantly written for the violin. Now go one step further, there is a young lady in France called Tina S. Her instrument is the electric guitar. She is what I would call a modern virtuoso playing guitar. My favourite composer is Vivaldi so when I came across Tina on KZread, I thought that it would be sacrilegious for her to play Vivaldi's 4 seasons. How wrong I was. That young lady blew me away with her amazing talent.
Beautifully played!

I took 5 years of piano. My dad's finger gun at my head but the sweetest widow teacher. I won recitals. Haven't played a note since 1970 but the experience was priceless.
So beautiful. She brought tears to my eyes as I listened to her fingertips glad across the strings. Just beautiful I could listen to her and her harp 24/7.
This is music from heaven and yes there’s a heaven.
....and just when you think there's no joy left in the world, a familiar piece of music springs to mind and somehow you wind up here and get blown away by a truly wonderful rendition of it.

Most excellent. you captured the subtleties. The softness, the hurriedness, the anxiety, the joy, the intrepidness, and everything else that Debussey put into this piece. stunning
I think Debussy would be moved to rear the renditions of his music that you've done. He's one of my favorite composers and honestly I hadn't heard many of his compositions on harp until I came across your channel. I think your work is the perfect expression of his music and you should be proud of yourself for bringing this dimension to it.
I'm lost for words.
When I am upset I go to this and listen and it always calms me down. Beautiful absolutely beautiful.
Claire de lune just sounds out of this world on the harp. My favorite instrument for this piece. ❤
