Herefordshire Harpists

Hire a Herefordshire Wedding Harpist

Events such as garden parties, graduations, private dinner functions, charity events, corporate events and drinks receptions would benefit from the more understated strains and compact setup of a harpist in Herefordshire – not every venue or budget can accommodate a full live band, and not every event needs the energy and excitement that they would invariably bring. The romantic elegance a harp brings to such pieces as Beethoven's Ode to Joy and Wagner's Bridal Chorus also makes our Herefordshire harpists a popular choice for wedding breakfasts, wedding processions and wedding receptions.

Our local Herefordshire Harpists are excited to travel anywhere from Hay-on-Wye to Ledbury, from Ross-on-Wye to Leominster, from Golden Valley to Wye Valley, from Mortimer Country to Bromyard and parts beyond. Simply contact Bands for hire for any and all enquiries about hiring your own local harpist in Herefordshire. If you're after quiet, intimate background music, you may also like to visit our Herefordshire acoustic bands page.

Harpists in Herefordshire

Entrenched as it is in traditional and classical imagery, the harp as an instrument is often overlooked in contemporary music, dismissed as a throwback to a forgotten age – but our forward-thinking harpists in Herefordshire like to give their sets a modern twist. Amid the myriad of Purcell, Puccini, Beethoven, and Bach is an eclectic and unique mixture of cover songs from Elton John, Simon and Garfunkel, Beyonce, Daft Punk and Florence and the Machine, and music from movies, television and stage shows like Shrek, Oliver!, Breakfast at Tiffany's, the Wizard of Oz and Mission: Impossible. This brilliant concoction of songs will ensure your guests will have something catered to each of them – many of our Herefordshire harpists also have traditional and Celtic folk, Bollywood and Jewish Wedding music up their sleeves. To witness the anachronism of modern songs on a traditional instrument will give the effect of time itself dilating as the event continues, allowing your guests to become absorbed into the atmosphere of your party.
