The
How, Why, When and Wow of having a Harpist!
What to consider when planning
your event in Vancouver BC |

| The
Wow Factor! |
Of all the musical instruments, the harp
has the greatest "wow factor"
for your guests. The harp bespeaks of something
very, very special. The care, attention
and professionalism that Alison puts into
her physical presentation, lighting and
musical performance enhances the harp's
visual effect to the point where it's just
simply "Wow". This rubs off on
your whole event and boosts your guest's
overall positive impression.

| How
to use the harp? |
Alison's harp music can be either for background
ambience or as a foreground feature act.
When using carefully controlled and discrete
amplification,
Alison's punchy rhythms and tuneful compositions
have more sonic presence than a string quartet!
Her music can gently disperse into a room
drifting in and out of conversation.

Alison has a
large, varied repertoire of harp music from
diverse cultures to suit every mood. Attractive
presentation is included with lights, linen
and flowers. Professional Harpsound
Audio amplification is available with

set-up is totally self-contained with a
battery powered option available.

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…
