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

| The
Wow Factor! |
Of all the musical instruments, the
harp has the greatest "wow factor"
for your guests. The harp speaks
a unique, captivating language. 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.

harp music from diverse cultures to

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…

the timing of everything before, during and after
the reception and ceremony, seamlessly and without
rehearsal."
