I haven't been listening long, but I think something strange is happening, but I don't know what. Perhaps he's playing two harps, but also I've seen him playing a 14-holer. I don't know if it was straight or an SBS.

I'm busy right now, so that I really can't analyse this very far. First it's difficult to analyse because you need an Ab harp, whereas it was probably originally on an A. There's a place where he seems to play 6,5,-4,6,-2 really fast, which is a surprising piece of virtuosity for him and for a piece of this type. Then there's a place where he seems to be able to bend the 6 blow down and also play the 6OB(!), so that I think it might be a 14-holer in A, but you can't try it out on an Ab and there's no such thing as a 14-holer in Ab (or am I thinking of the SBS?). I think I might tab it, then play it on a 14-holer in C some time and see what happens. Sorry I've got to run away now.
