Harp Heaven

Sunday 20th January 2008, 8.00pm

Glasgow Royal Concert Hall : Strathclyde Suite

 Please Note: This is a past event event.

Sponsored by The Clarsach Society

Almost certainly the first time that twelve top Celtic harpists have shared the same stage, tonight’s specially-created performance will no doubt include a wealth of heavenly sounds – together with a liberal dose of musical devilment.

The harp is currently enjoying a particularly exciting renaissance in Scotland, as reflected here in the diverse styles of Corrina Hewat, Mary MacMaster, Patsy Seddon, Catriona McKay, Maeve Gilchrist, Ailie Robertson, Fraya Thomsen, Gillian Fleetwood and Rachel Hair. Joining them from Ireland are Cormac DeBarra and Laoise Kelly, with Germany’s Jochen Vogel completing the line-up, for a programme that will range from solo spots to the full dozen-strong ensemble.
