The Glass Harp
By Mark Flippo
Anna and Arik SzafraÅ?iec used to perform with the Baltic Philharmonic Orchestra. She played violin; he played trumpet. Neither had ever heard of the glass harp before they decided to build one just for fun. The glass harp fell out of fashion for about 100 years, but the couple, performing under the name Glassduo, has brought it back to life with a repertoire ranging from arrangements of DvoÅ?ák and Chopin to Sting's 1987 hit, Fragile. With almost 60 glasses placed in three rows on a table sloped so they all reach the same height, the SzafraÅ? They believe theirs is the biggest glass harp in the world. Its range is close to five octaves.
Go onto Google and look this couple up. Their music is wonderful. We can refine our skills that Jesus gives us so we can make fantastic music. There is an art form to any gift that Jesus gives you. He expects you to put it to good use for His kingdom. We are here to bring Glory and Praise to His name!
In all you do acknowledge Him and He will direct thy paths. Let Him help you get better. Let Him bring you to places that you could have never imagined before. Scripture also tells us that a man's gift will make room for him. It is true. Bless His name! Give Him the highest Praise! Hallelujah!
