Elegant, live harp music can enhance your wedding or special event. The harp is a perfect choice for background music at a bridal shower, baptism celebration, birthday party, holiday function, cocktail party or corporate event. It provides a gentle elegant ambiance without obstructing conversations. Sarah is equally skilled at playing classical music, traditional Irish melodies, jazzy classics, romantic movie themes or Broadway show tunes. You can choose the repertoire to personalize your occasion. |

"I just wanted to thank you for contributing to a great day. You did a wonderful job at the church and the cocktail hour. The music sounded incredible. Bob and I knew it was going to be a beautiful day. I must say it was beyond any expectations we had and your contribution was much appreciated." -- Connie Sparks, client |
