Three students who have been studying with me for many years - really, since they were young children - will present a beautiful recital of solos, duets and and trios at the Conservatory in Nanaimo, Thursday, May 31st. Please come and hear some spectacular playing, and support these young harp artists!  Ava Barakso, Philip Morosan, and Kaleigh Stroink, in concert.  7 pm

5755 Allenby Rd, Duncan BC V9L 0E6  - We'll play for the residents and for each other  and our invited guests. It is a beautiful room to play in! The ensemble tunes, and solos by the adult students studying in Duncan. Coffee and tea and goodies to follow.

6:30 pm, Friday June 15th

All Duncan harpists from 5 to 25 will play a recital piece or two at our year end event.  The location will be at Glenora Farm (there is a map on the calendar listing for this)  Bring your harps, and family and enjoy the beautiful Trillium space at the Glenora Farm. Go to the big house and then go left to the red roofed building.

5 - 6:15 approximately, but all students should arrive by 4 pm, for set up and a little run through.

I needed to give my schedule to Nanaimo Conservatory this month so have organized it all on one sheet. It will be too tiny to read on a phone, but will work for a larger computer, and you can download it yourself to print.

Just click calendar here or on the tab above

Of course things happen, but I hope they won't change too much. The big gap is in November when I'm hoping to teach in China again. If that doesn't work out - it is tentative at the moment -  there may be some changes. The spring break dates might move around a bit as well.

The group dates will stay as close as possible to the days shown for both NC and Duncan.

We've heard from Long and McQuade in Victoria that they have a Wellspring 36 for sale. $2500.  I don't know anything else but if you are interested you could call Dustin 250-384-3622

I've been attacked by a bug - have to stay in bed. So sorry...

Registration is open - and I hope it will be filled up - so please if you're planning to come, go to the Harp and Cello Festival page and register on-line. I'm so excited about this opportunity to work more with Morag, and to share her with you all! Tell your cello playing buddies as well!

Just in time for the holidays - a good beginner instrument - an older Aoyama in good condition, well cared for and played every day by its owner who is acquiring another harp! includes a spare set of strings, $1200 email

It's a wrap - the last in the series - don't forget to log your response - what you've learned, what was your favourite, what you'll work on for the new year!

Here is the harp played in a non-traditional way for those who are thinking of a more electric use for our favourite instrument -
