Glass harp music - The Moldau - Smetana

The Moldau - Vlatva - by B. Smetana played on glass harp by Robert Tiso. The piece contains Smetana’s most famous tune. It is an adaptation of the melody La Mantovana, attributed to the Italian renaissance tenor Giuseppe Cenci (also known as Giuseppino),[3] which, in a borrowed Moldovan form, was also the basis for the Israeli national anthem, Hatikvah. The tune also appears in major in an old folk Czech song Kočka leze dírou (“The Cat Crawls Through the Hole“) and Hans Eisler used it for his “Song of the Moldau“. [edit]
