Solo Female Harpist In London
With over 15 years of experience this award winning harpist is perfect for weddings and functions. Harriet is a solo female harpist that has extreme professional skills as well as expertise in the art of classical music.
Harriet has hopped on the grand carriage as she has performed in stunning locations and events such as Her Majestry, Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee celebration, The BRIT Awards and a live duet on TV with Dermot O’Leary for Channel 4’s Celebrity Big Brother.
She is a versatile performer as she has not only appered at London’s Fabric Night Club dressed up as an angel, but also performed for BBC 1’s Songs of Praise and for Channel 5’s The Hotel Inspector. Not to forget her regular performances at cruise ships like Cunard’s legendary QE2, Fred Olsen and P & O Cruises. Her repertoire expends as she has performed in grand hotels such as Claridges, The Ritz, the Savoy, and the Dorchester Hotel.
Originally performing classical music, Harriet wows audience by taking song request for music styles such as folk, jazz, pop and even Bollywood music. She offers pieces to her clients if they would like to choose compositions.
The right sounds can inspire and complement a magical event, and Harriet will ensure that the music for your day is unique and a lasting memory. Harriet performs mainly on her full-size concert grand harp but can also provide a smaller Clarsach (folk harp) harp (useful when space is at a premium), and for a more contemporary feel, even a pearlescent white electric harp.
Harriet concentrates most of her bookings in London and the Home Counties area, but will also consider events further afield depending on the date and location.
Apart from performing as a soloist, she is also available as a quartet, upon request.
