Clair de Lune by Claude Debussy, based on Christy Lyn Marais’ arrangement for Celtic harp. I just love this beautiful, romantic, relaxing piece on the harp. I hope you do too! Www.erikatheharpist.com

Traditional Irish (some believe it may have been composed by Turlough O’Carolan, but there is no evidence of that). This arrangement was written by Tiffany Schafer. I just love this tune. It’s so haunting and mystical and undeniably Irish. Happy St. Patrick’s Day! 💚🎶💚🎶💚 www.erikatheharpist.com

Deborah-Henson Conant’s Baroque Flamenco (Intermediate Version) was the piece I choice for the Harp Column 30-Day Practice Challenge this year (2022), because it really pushed me out of my comfort zone with some new techniques, bold styles, challenging rhythms and varying character. I had so much fun working on it, and I intend to keep developing in the future by adding some of the more advanced bits when I’m ready for them! Hope you enjoy it. 💕

I played this wonderful arrangement by Ailie Robertson of Carol of the Bells at the Annual Dickens Festival in Port Jefferson, NY this year (2021) and thought I'd make a little video to commemorate it. Enjoy, and Happy Holidays! Keep in touch: www.erikatheharpist.com Instagram: @Celticharplady TikTok: @ErikatheHarpist Twitter: @HarpLady4
