This is beautiful. Brings back some of its ancient roots when it was played on the lute or harp or harpsichord in medieval England .

His right hand technique is fantastic.
He was using the harp strings for bass. Pretty version.
I looked it up. His harp guitar is hand-made by a luthier in Italy.
I couldn't read the whole FB post to get the builder's name because FB requires sign in to see more than the first few posts.
I don't have a FB account.
