Welcome. 2025 has started out as a busy year, music wise. With the New England Irish Orchestra and solo, there were concerts every weekend in March. Please visit the events page for upcoming concerts this Summer. I'll be having my 10th summer harp camp in Maine this 15-17 July. Titled 'Tunes and Technique', this camp is for advanced beginners - intermediate harpers. We explore various techniques and learn some tunes, all on a beautiful pond, where the loons join in making music with us. Please email me if you are interested. I'm patiently waiting for some warmer weather to clean up my garden. I hope to see you at some of the upcoming concerts, and hope you have a glorious spring. Regina
Below are some highlights from 2023. Regina
We've returned from our Ireland tour and are happy to report that a good time was had by all. Our first concert was in Port Laois at the Malthouse, with Siobhan Buckley and Music Generation Laois. Seeing 50-60 harps on the stage was thrilling, and hearing them even more so. Here is the link to the Malt House article: https://www.laoistoday.ie/2023/05/09/in-pictures-music-at-the-malthouse-well-attended-with-huge-talent-on-show/ We continued with concerts in Killarney and Tralee(thanks to Tim O'Shea and Sam for all their help arranging these concerts); Galway (Thank you Grace Timlin for all your help and for playing with us); and our last concert was in beautiful Doolin(many thanks to Carmel Shannon for access to the Russell Cultural Center). Here is the link to our poster for the tour. One of our members, Evelyn, designed the poster and did all the graphic work. So many thanks, Evelyn. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZwxNR0wRIx5XVCPVFK4x1Wp7fubl0omk/view?usp=sharing We also were featured on WMUR TV on their NH Chronicle program. Here is the link for that. https://www.wmur.com/article/nh-chronicle-the-music-of-the-new-england-irish-harp-orchestra/43470151
With regard to Covid safety precautions, I have been fully vaccinated and boosted, and am comfortable performing with a mask on where required.
All of my CD's and The New England Irish Harp Orchestras CD's are available on the various streaming services and you can email me to have CD's mailed to you directly.
If you're interested in lessons, bookings, videos, or anything harp-related, please write to me at [email protected] And as always, thank you for supporting my music. All the best for a lovely winter, Regina
