Twins Gorgeously Play 'Stairway To Heaven' On Harps

Jul 29, 2020

You probably haven't heard of harp rock, have you? In case you haven’t, it is no doubt that Chicago musicians Camille and Kennerly Kitt, also known as the harp twins, will introduce you to it.

In this clip from 2010, the twins perform the Led Zeppelin classic Stairway to Heaven on the harp at Place De La Musique in Illinois, and the performance is truly breathtaking.

They are identical twins who started playing harps at a young age. Classically, they have been trained in harp performance at university, according to their website. They have also come up with original songs that they have performed all over the globe.

It is clear that they have a flair and passion for organizing and performing metal, rock, and soundtrack music on their harps. They have created a niche for themselves by playing metal and rock music using their two harps.

The harp twins performed the rock classic of Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin with their two harps back in 2010. While they hadn't written the song, the harp twins put their own twist on it, reinvigorating the rock classic.

It is unbelievable how beautiful the two professional twins play. Camille and Kennerly performed the song at the bottom of the grand staircase of the Place De La Musique. The place is at the Sanfillipo family estate and museum in Illinois. As soon as the two identical twins begin to play, you can hear the melody of Stairway to Heaven instantly.

They are so attuned with each other such that they play at the same time, making it look magical. The pure white dresses that they perform in creates an excellent performance. The rock song comes out so beautiful and delicate that you can easily forget Led Zeppelin created it in the first place.

It is well known that Stairway to Heaven takes some time. The harp twins don't just play an excerpt from the song but play the entire thing. The performance of the song is unique and impressive: no studio, sound engineer, edits, loops, overlays, backtracks, or splices. Within no time, their performance went viral and has since been viewed more than three million times.

Despite the classic rock song, the harp twins have also performed other rock or metal songs on their harps. Camille and Kennerly have a full YouTube playlist. The playlist is made of many popular harp rock songs. The videos are viral, with each of them having a million views and above. Viewers have left many comments to the harp twins for their fantastic performances.

The viewers have acknowledged how fantastic it is to play the song with harps. Harp is one of the hardest instruments to learn how to play on earth and throughout history. Yet, it is used to perform rock classics here. In fact, some would feel that Led Zeppelin, the original artist behind the classic song, could have covered it from the harp twins.

Camille and Kennerly have always done amazing performances while doing rock and metal songs. It seems impossible. However, with their harps, they were able to perform a song that came out like the original.
