Dorset Harpists

Dorset Harpists

With Bands for Hire, you can hire a classically trained harpist to play a multitude of music from various genres in the Dorset area. These harpists in Dorset that we have the pleasure of working with are perfect for graduations, awards ceremonies, garden parties, charity events, corporate events, private dinner functions and any other quiet, civilised get-together that you feel could use a little class and ambience. Our talented Dorset harpists are an especially popular choice for wedding breakfasts, wedding processions and wedding receptions, thanks in no small part to the breath-taking moment when you hear Wagner's Bridal Chorus or Pachelbel's Canon in D strike up on this most romantic of instruments as the bride walks up the aisle.

The harpists in Dorset we have on record have played at prestigious venues including the Houses of Parliament, the Royal Albert Hall, and in West End shows. This is evidence of their sheer talent and love for their instruments, but if you require more, you need only experience a harpist in concert first hand. There is an undeniable connection between the musician and the instrument, which is required to play this complex instrument to its full potential, and this connection resonates throughout the venue. Their roster of music includes several Jazz Standards from the Great American Songbook by artists such as George Gershwin, Irving Berlin and Cole Porter, as well as choice minuets and sonatas from composers in the leagues of Puccini, Handel, and Bach, featuring violin and oboe pieces that have been expertly transcribed to be played on the harp.

Not only do our wonderful harpists in Dorset play classical traditional music such as traditional and Celtic folk, operatic arias, Bollywood and Jewish Wedding music, but they are also able to captivate your guests with covers of songs by the likes of Elton John, The Beach Boys, Daft Punk and Ed Sheeran. Our Dorset harpists can also serenade you with music from memorable soundtracks of films and musicals such as the Godfather, the Wizard of Oz, Les Miserables, and The Jungle Book. You may also like to take a moment to peruse our Dorset acoustic bands and Dorset string quartets pages.

A very friendly and professional organisation. Their expedient service was tremendous, giving me the assurance that my event would be a huge success. All written communication was clear and concise and telephone conversations were polite and gave me confidence. This was the first time I had used Bands For Hire, and I would certainly recommend them.
