London Harpists
For any event that requires an understated yet sophisticated soundtrack, Bands for Hire would highly recommend booking one of our many talented London harpists. Our classically trained harpists, many of whom having performed at such eminent establishments as Buckingham Palace and the Royal Albert Hall, have enjoyed illustrious careers as session musicians and held prominent positions in the Guildford Symphony Orchestra and London Sound Ensemble. Professional to the Nth degree, our local London harpists will bring the quality of the concert hall directly to you for a competitive price.
Hire a Harpist in London
Our harpists in London are frequently booked to play at wedding receptions, , thanks to the highly emotive sounds and the romantic atmosphere the instrument can create. This effect would also suit a garden party, drinks reception, restaurant, private party, charity or corporate event - any kind of function where the conversation level needn't be raised, and the air can be sweetened by the mellifluous strains of a harp's strings.

Strauss's Blue Danube, Beethoven's Ode to Joy, Vivaldi's Spring (the Four Seasons) and Edvard Grieg's Morning Mood (Peer Gynt Suite) are all popular staples of our London harpists' repertoires.
