Harp!

Had a great hang today with the lovely and talented Katie Andrews, an incredible harpist and super fun person to be around.  I’m going to be composing some music for her but first I wanted her to explain the nature and principles of harp performance. Fortunately, she offered to let me play for the majority of the session so I got some hands on experience. Harp is significantly harder to play than it sounds — another one of life’s lovely contradictions! She’s very active in the music scene and has more info at her website kathrynandrews.com . And for the musicians out there, yes, playing glissandi passages on harp is massively satisfying.
