Hangin' with the Harp

Hangin' with the Harp - Every Third Tuesday, 4PM EDT

Next Hangin' with the Harp - 9/19/23

Via Zoom and Facebook

 

AHC would like to invite you to a harp “hang” every third Tuesday at 4PM EST. Each month you can join some of our favorite harpists for a half hour presentation followed by a 10 minute Q&A covering a variety of topics to keep you inspired and excited with the harp during these challenging times. Each live stream will also be proceeded by a brief live chat with AHC owner Mary Jane D'Arville and harpist Robbin Gordon-Cartier! Can’t make it? No problem! You can catch the replay on our Youtube channel and Facebook page.

 

 

Next Hangin' with the Harp - 9/19/23

Step it up September Sightreading Session

Hangin’ with Anna Dunwoodie

on Zoom or Facebook

 

 

September is here and that means time to trade in your sunglasses for reading glasses and hone your harp skills! Sight-reading is a fundamental skill for all musicians but one that is often overlooked. Join Anna Dunwoodie and discover how you can see music with fresh eyes and improve your sight-reading skills. With her four book series, Sightreading for the Harp, co-written with Lisa Williamson, Anna has provided a much-needed resource for the harp community and is thrilled to share her expertise with students and professionals alike. So come hang with Anna and step up your sight-reading skills!

 

New Zealand harpist Anna Dunwoodie stays busy as a performer, composer, teacher and most recently Artistic Director of the successful Harp Fest NZ 2023. Anna is passionate about making the harp more accessible for everyone which she has accomplished through organizing both local music making sessions and international harp events as well as publishing harp repertoire and creating online chat environments for harpists in her homeland and throughout the world!
