As festival fever hits the nation my own thoughts turn to another festival that catches my attention, a harp festival organised by the Clarsach Society London and South-East branch. It is taking place during the weekend of 27th to 29th July in Woking and will feature concerts, workshops,
talks, a harp exhibition, sales of music and harp-related items,
opportunities for private lessons and come and try sessions. The International Harp Ensemble will give an opening concert on the Friday night and then Saturday and Sunday will be packed full of various workshops and presentations given by Danielle Perret, Nancy Hurrell, Robin Ward. I am particularly interested in Nicholas Lynch-Aird's presentation on the Theory of a self-tuning harp and will be curious to see if this theory could be applied to other instruments like, say, the clarinet...
Accomodation is available and it promises to be an exciting weekend.
