Music exalts each joy, allays each grief, expels diseases, softens every pain, subdues the rage of poison, and the plague; and hence the wise of ancient days ador'd, one power of physic, melody, and song.

--John Armstrong, from "The art of Preserving Health" (1744)

Funerals:

The Harp has been used in many cultures for millennia as a mystic ladder that unites this world with the next.  This ancient instrument, revered as a gift from the gods, has been used for transformation and transition.  Music has the ability to charm and soothe the mind and the heart.

Within the heavenly realm, angels throughout the ages have been depicted with harps.  The angels of music embody creative and divine expression, sing praises to God, and provide harmony to the world through waves of glorious sound.  The winged "soulbirds" are instruments of divine will - messengers between heaven and earth.   

Family and loved ones can experience emotional connections through the music shared at the final closure.  My harp music can be a comforting addition to your service.

Please fill out the form below so that we may communicate in regard to your memorial service:

Deposit:

No deposit is required for funerals or memorials.  Payment is due at the conclusion of my participation.

Specific Music To Be Played:  

Not all music in print is suitable to be played on a solo harp.  If you have something special in mind, I will try to honor your request.

Arrival:

I will arrive early to tune my harp and set up.  Adequate lighting for reading is necessary in the area where I will be playing, and a nearby electrical outlet for my music lamp and sound system which will accept a 3-prong surge protector for my needs.  No recording for any purpose, and no flash photography during my playing please.  Arrangements for pictures can be made.

Parking:

Parking at the event site close to the loading zone area must be provided.  If event parking is not free, the Client assumes the cost of the harpist's parking.  A loading zone close to the venue entrance must be provided during the loading and unloading process.

Thank-You!
