Harpist

Colchester

Public liability insurance of £10 million

I studied in the US with symphony harpists Mary Bircher and Katie Wychulis, and attend the Midwest Harp Summer Camp in Chicago, Illinois. I am now back in the UK taking gigs, ready to share the beauty of the harp. I have a gorgeous Lyon and Healy pedal harp with gold leaves and crown perfect to add a touch of class to your event. I get a lot of requests for video game music arrangements and classical but can play music for any occasion. Improv is my speciality. I am proffesional, well-dressed and accommodating of most requests. I also play with Take Note Essex concert band. I look forward to playing for you, and making your event an occasion to remember.

I need approximately 40 minutes to unload the harp, set up, get the strings tuned and settled.

Do you need any equipment provided to play outdoors?

For outdoor events, the weather must not be below 12C, or exceed 25C for the benefit of the harp. If it is raining, I will need full cover or to perform indoors. The pedal harp cannot be played on grass. A solid deck or platform must be provided if there is no concrete area.
