FAQs

  • Yes and no. The harp is instantly gratifying because as soon as you touch the strings it makes a beautiful sound (as long as it’s in tune). In a way it plays itself, as its vibration carries after the strings are played and even the wind blowing through the strings will create a beautiful sound. However, the correct technique takes time to develop and the approach to playing skilfully and mindfully requires patience.

  • I charge $40 per half hour $60 per 45 minutes and $80 per hour as per the national guidelines for individual music instruction. Fees can be paid for the term in advance or half term or at a casual rate.

  • Yes I have been teaching online for many years. Having grown up in regional areas I often didn’t have access to a teacher so I am very keen to facilitate students who don’t have harp teachers nearby or are particularly interested in what I teach. I was an early adopter of Zoom and taught all of my classes through zoom during 2020.

  • I am currently teaching from Wednesday to Friday from 9 – 7:30. Bookings can be made on Saturdays by prior arrangement but this day is kept free generally due to performance bookings.

  • I can give you advice on both and I can often offer rental harps to get you started. It is often a good idea to rent a harp (link to rent a harp on my website) for a short while to see if you are really keen as harps can be expensive. Also it might give you a bit more insight into what kind of harp will suit you best. There are some great local harp makers which I recommend and also imported brands which can be sourced through local dealers.
