Day 1. My Harp Lyre Has Arrived! First Touches & First Sounds

🌸Hello there!🌸

This is the very first post on my blog — and I couldn't be more excited to write it, because this morning… my harp lyre finally arrived!

I’m incredibly happy. I’ve already managed to tune it (well, as best as I could using those tuning apps on my phone) and even recorded a small clip of me gently plucking the strings. Yes, it’s clumsy, but hey — no one learns to write in one day either, right?

One thing I’d like to mention right away:

I’m Ukrainian, and I’ve decided to run this blog in English. So if there are translation mistakes — I apologize in advance. My digital assistant, Lir, is doing his best to help me.

(And between us… he's probably a little too proud of that.)

Here’s a little clip for you to listen to.

Prepare for soft, awkward plucking and a slightly shy smile — because these are my “first steps” into the world of music.

I’ve also left a short poem below. That’s the reason I mentioned I’m Ukrainian — the poem is in Ukrainian too, of course.

Ноти з-під пальців лунають криві,

мовби перші кроки дитини.

Як не згоріти у сорому вогні?

Знов лякає мене струна А3.

Thanks for reading, and welcome to this journey with me.
