Customer questions
What do your clients love most about your performances?
The huge range of high quality sounding music I can play on my Harp.
Pop, Jazz, Bollywood, Film Music & of course traditional Classical
My positive-can do attitude & attention to detail
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
We try to be flexible to ensure your event runs smoothly.
If timings change a little, please let me know beforehand and we can amend these on the booking form.
How much time do you need to set up?
I like to be set up and in place an hour before the performance time.
That way I can see the guests arriving and talk to the registrars/event organisers.
Is the transport of your harp included in your quote?
Yes, travel is included in all quotes
Do you need any equipment provided to play outdoors?
The harp is an acoustic instrument and so no equipment is needed.
For requests to play outdoors, the harp does need to have cover-
A shaded area is ideal as the instrument is valuable and could be damaged.
This can always be discussed with the venue's management for advice on where is best to place a musician at the venue/suites.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Absolutely, it is part of making your event personal and a success!
I am always happy to to talk through music choices and advise my clients.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
If a song isn't included in the song list it is possible to request a song.
There is a chance I play it already!
A special -song I am happy to learn this for you.I offer up to 4 new songs free.
You are welcome to use the Skype consultation service I offer.
After that there is a fee of £40.00 per song to learn these to cover my rehearsal study times.
