Any Event is an occasion for harp music!

I play harp for many occasions, if your event isn't listed, please inquire! Amplification is
available.

Church Services - Music for Services, weddings & Special Occasions. I play harp as part of
our Taize worship team.

Concerts - The harp is perfect for house concerts

Important Note: I play folk, rather than concert harp. This means that although I read music, my harps have levers,
not the pedals which allow 'concert' harpists to play 'accidentals' or switch keys on demand. Some music just isn't
suitable
for folk harps!
I play solo or with small groups.
"The harp is prominent in Welsh, Breton, Irish, Scottish and other Celtic cultures
within traditional or folk music and as a social and political symbol." (see the Wikipedia entry
here)
