Evidently I only log into this site after moving to a new state. Who do I know in the Raleigh, NC area?! #harpist #newmusictwitter #musochat

For those of you curious about why harpists dread Berlioz’s Symphony Fantastique, here’s a new YouTube video for you! (Chapters are included in the description if you want to reference specific sections.) Watch at youtu.be/Nc88gPSc53A?si=uW1s… or link in bio

Holding my phone too long 100% causes most of my wrist pain at the harp 😅 #practicetips #musicteacher #harpist

It’s the time of year that harpists all dread…at least until all 47 strings are changed and the harp sounds brighter and better than ever! #iykyk #harpist

I send out monthly emails to my main list with updates on what I’ve been up to, as well as any new music releases. And then every two weeks, I send out a Harp Tips Email (for composers) and a Practice Corner Email (for harpists). I’d love for you to join me!! (2/2)

PC vs Mac. I sorely need to upgrade my laptop to handle music production software for collaborations. Do most composers/producers use Apple products? Would I benefit with access to Mac-specific software, like Logic? Or is a PC with Pro Tools likely sufficient? #musicproduction

Not to add to the notation software woes, but does anyone else have perpetual issues with Sibelius licensing? I got a monthly Ultimate license for a project and I'm locked out again. (Ticket already submitted to help.) I'm this close to giving up on #Avid. #musicnotation

Constantly realizing how difficult it is to self-produce high quality recordings, even just from the artist/performer's perspective.

If you have a good idea, you can use it twice! Full video about Ravel and the comparison between the harp cadenza in the Piano Concerto and the one in the Introduction et Allegro on YouTube! youtu.be/t0v8Hvz06S4?si=F5hQ… #Composeharp

Easy for professionals =/= easy. It’s still worth looking at the layers involved in less difficult orchestral harp parts and cadenzas! This clip is from a recent video on the Ravel Harp Cadenza from the Piano Concerto in G Major. Full video on YouTube at youtu.be/t0v8Hvz06S4?si=XBwa…

Running my own tech is always an experience, but hopefully everything is tested and troubleshooted and will go smoothly for tomorrow’s workshop! The best part of the lapel mic is that everyone will hear me breathing during the harp demonstrations. 🫠

You don’t have to write exactly like Ravel to write well for the harp! However, this piece demonstrates some good examples of harp writing that you can apply to your own work. Join me via Zoom at 3 PM EST on Friday, July 12th for a workshop on harp writing lessons from Ravel!

Harpists often recommend the Ravel "Introduction et Allegro" to composers learning to write for the harp. While it's an excellent example of idiomatic harp writing, it can be overwhelming at first glance. Let's break it down together! Join me via Zoom at 3 PM EST on 7/12 [1/2]
