Audio is not the best quality, but I hope you enjoy the birds and running water!2021-02-13 Electric harp first look streamharpsona2021-02-14 | Testing out my new Cassista ClearTones 30 electric harp!Tifas Theme (Final Fantasy VII)harpsona2021-02-13 | With the Final Fantasy VII remake being out for a year now, I wanted to arrange Tifa's Theme for this Valentine's Day.
This is the first time I've done a live recording in years. I typically record the audio first, mix, and then record video afterwards playing to my own recording. But I really wanted the freedom to express myself in modulating the tempo and didn't want to come across as disingenuous by poorly finger-syncing afterwards.
Hope you enjoy!
