PRIVATE LESSONS | HARP

The harp is such a beautiful and soulful instrument - it gives great pleasure to both the student and the audience! There are many technical skills which must be learned to "get the most" out of the instrument. However, while on the road to achieving these skills, there is a wide variety of rewarding music to enjoy!

She later studied Music Education at the University of Alberta and integrated music into daily education of young children at Edmonton Public Schools for a number of years.
