The

Wow Factor! |

your whole event and boosts your guest's
overall positive impression.

to use the harp? |
Alison's solo harp music can be for background
ambience or as an entertainer foreground

presence than even a string quartet! Conversely
her music can gently disperse in a room
drifting in and out of conversation.

To Alison,
The Rainbow Harpist
You have left
the rainbow,
The sun, the moon,
the stars,
so much behind you.
Until you
had gone
I did not know that you had left
the rivers, the forests,
the silences.
I did not know
I should always remember
your music in my heart.
Viva Alison,
Mucho gracias…
Peter Jacobson, Poet,
Dunedin, New Zealand
