The harp (or clarsach) is a versatile instrument which it can be found in many different situations such as concert stages, wedding music, in hotels. It has a pure sound when played solo or in duos that I really enjoy listening to. Here's a selection below.
This album shows the harps strength as a solo instrument, demonstrating its strong rhythmic and melodic capabilities, and proving that it really can stand its own.
Laebrack features Catriona McKay (Scottish harp) and Chris Stout (fiddle, viola). Chris and Catrional are members of the thrilling seven-piece Shetland band Fiddlers' Bid.
Mary Macmaster ( The Poozies, Sileas ) and Donald Hay ( Mystery Juice, The Unusual Suspects ) combine to produce a beautiful, powerful and unique sound.
Blue notes, ancient ballads, torch song standards and original tunes all alchemised by Corrinna's magically sensuous voice and the rich commanding resonance of the Carnat electro-harp into pure musical gold.
