Enescu Rhapsody with SNS

This week I joined Symphony Nova Scotia for the spirited Romanian Rhapsody no. 1, by George Enescu, presented as part of the Festival week of concerts. With Karen Rokos on first harp, it was a very enjoyable short whirlwind of a piece!

Harp-playing iris

In a very short little session today, Rich Aucoin recorded some harp sounds inspired by the harp-playing iris from Alice in Wonderland. Excited to see the finished album project!

Easter Brunch

Here is the harp all ready to go at the Waegwoltic Club's Easter Brunch!

Quiet Music Part 2

India and I finished up our mini tour with a second Quiet Music concert at Manning Chapel in Wolfville.

Quiet Music Part 1

India Gailey and I hosted a small concert today at the Conservatory, featuring Quiet Music for cello and harp. People were welcome to draw, or look at picture books, or take a nap while they listened! We'll be doing it again in Wolfville on Monday afternoon.
