I'm very excited to announce that I will be teaching at the TCU Summer Harp Workshop this July 6-8, 2022!
​
The TCU Summer Harp Workshop offers 3 days of harp ensemble, solo masterclasses, and interactive sessions about the harp uniquely customized for the participants enrolled. Each day will begin with a focus on physical wellness through stretching and yoga designed for harpists. Kela Walton will offer individual instruction in masterclasses, as well as ensemble coaching. Sessions away from the harp on customized topics such as: practice strategies, harp history, audition/competition prep, or how to take care of your harp will be offered pending interest by the participants. At the end of the workshop, each participant will have the opportunity to perform on the final recital. This year’s workshop will celebrate being able to create music together again, safely in the same space.

The workshop is open to young harpists 8th grade and above, intermediate to advanced level. Students are asked to bring their own instruments, as the availability of rental harps is quite limited.

Three members of the Sparkle City Harp Ensemble: Anne Elizabeth, Sally Frick, and I joined a handful of other socially distanced musicians and clergy for this service live streamed from the Episcopal Church of the Advent in Spartanburg, SC on September 20, 2020. The other harpists and I hope you enjoy this online worship service!
