Winter Harp 

 

Friday, November 26 8:00pm

St. Alice, Harrison Hot Springs Resort & Spa

Tickets: $20.00

 

A concert of heartwarming carols, songs and stories in
celebration of the Christmas and winter season. 

 

Standing ovations, sold out concerts and rave reviews are the hallmarks of Winter Harp, an ensemble of harps, medieval instruments, violin, viola, percussion, poetry and song.  The musicians, in gorgeous medieval attire, perform a hauntingly-beautiful collection of music from well-known carols to Celtic, medieval and even flamenco. 

 

Rare instruments include the ethereal-sounding bass psaltery (the only one like it in the world), the 10th century symphonie and the nyckelharpa.  Poetry, music, laughter and tears combine in this magical journey which takes its listeners deep into the heart of winter, deep into the heart of Christmas.

 

As a soloist and with her ensembles, Lori Pappajohn has performed in Canada, the United States, Chile, Britain, Ireland and Greece. She is one of the leaders in the harp world, and has been featured at the world's most prestigious harp events.  A composer and an award-winning journalist, Lori has eight recordings, produced a documentary about the history of the harp and was featured in a music video for Bravo Television. With her ensemble Winter Harp, Lori has been showcased on television and radio, including on CBC Television's Opening Night series.
