Harpist

I started playing the harp in 2007 and graduated from Guildhall School of Music & Drama with a Concert Recital Diploma in 2021. I have performed at multiple venues such as the Barbican Concert Hall in London to the Kyoto Concert Hall in Japan. I am very familiar with performing at weddings, parties, and charity events as I have done so for almost all of my life. I am always open for any requests regarding repertoire and other queries to suit your day for you and your guests.

Caroline was incredible from our very first contact, right to the end of our wedding. Her communication was always professional, responsive and so helpful. Caroline listened to our musical preferences and came up with the most beautiful playlist. We had requested two quite abstract rock songs but she transferred them over to harp music so beautifully. Caroline’s attention to detail was exceptional and I would highly recommend her for any event. I can’t thank Caroline enough. She helped a dream I’d had since I was a little girl come to life.

Caroline made our wedding venue come to life. She has a wide repertoire and the guests loved all her song choices. One of the ideas I had was to play my flute at the start of the wedding. I hadn't played flute for a very long time and Caroline made it possible. Her communication was friendly throughout, her calm presence even eased my wedding nerves and she is a very experienced harpist. Highly recommend!

Customer questions

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I always try my best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If the timings change in the run up to event, please let me know as soon as possible.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually set up about 1 to 1.5 hours before the performance time. During this time, I pack up and tune the harp to be ready to perform for your guests!

Do you need any equipment provided to play outdoors?

None at all - my harp is played acoustically so I don't need any equipment. If it is raining then I will need full cover or to perform indoors as my instrument is valuable and could be damaged.
