I live in Bunbury, Western Australia, and have been classically trained as a pianist and flutist before changing over to the harp 20 years ago. I have a Salvi 'Diana' grand concert harp, a Forrestworks Celtic harp and a Salvi Juno harp. My teachers have been Sarah Bowman, Principal Harpist with the West Australian Symphony Orchestra, internationally acclaimed harpist Marshall McGuire, and harpist/teacher extraordinaire, Anthony Maydwell.
I play a variety of styles and play at weddings, cocktail functions, conventions and special occasions including birthdays - in fact anywhere you would like to hear and see a harp, including outdoors!
I often travel to functions in Perth and around the south west, including the Margaret River region. I also play in the great southern area of Albany, Denmark and Mt Barker. Playing music live to an audience, and knowing that people are enjoying the music and the instrument, is a very rewarding experience in itself. I also teach people how to play the harp.
I recently recorded a CD - "Just Is...." which is available in music and book shops in the south west. You can order the CD online in this site. Producing the CD was a great experience. It includes music that ranges from modern to classical with some really
beautiful healing music. You can hear samples from my CD on the sample music page.
Bookings are really simple all you need to do is email me or give me a call. If at all possible you are welcome to call in and see the harps and choose your music before you finalise a booking.
