Strings in the Loft: An Irish Harp Immersion with Hannah Flowers

April 11 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

Have you ever been captivated by the ethereal sound of the harp and thought, “I wish I could do that”? Join us for a day of immersion into the Celtic Harp. Whether you want to dive into the full experience or just dip your toes in for a single session, the Loft is open to you.

The Schedule

  • 10:00 AM – 11:30 AM | Workshop Part 1: Foundations & First Notes Perfect for the absolute beginner. We’ll demystify the instrument, covering posture, hand placement, and the physics of the pluck. You’ll leave for lunch having already played your first few bars of music.

 

  • 1:30 PM – 3:00 PM | Workshop Part 2: Patterns & Folk Melodies Building on the morning session, we dive into the “Celtic” style. We’ll explore the rhythmic patterns and simple arrangements that give the harp its magical storytelling quality. (Prerequisite: Part 1 or very basic previous knowledge).

 

  • 4:00 PM | The Evening Concert (Open to the Public) The day culminates in an intimate performance by Hannah. This concert is open to everyone—bring a friend! Relax in the Loft and hear the instrument in its full glory; after the workshops, you’ll have a whole new appreciation for the magic happening on stage.
