Kent Harpists
To enrich your event with a quietly dignified yet sonically beautiful milieu, a Kent harpist would be Bands for Hire's first choice. Our local harpists are classically trained, having performed solo and as part of such prestigious ensembles as the Orion Symphony Orchestra and the Co-Opera Company at a host of high-profile venues, ranging from Buckingham Palace to the gardens of Les Capucins for the Opera de Bauge festival. To say this is an assurance of quality musicianship would be an understatement – our harpists in Kent weave magic at their fingertips, and, for a competitive cost, your guests will be spellbound.
Hire a Wedding Harpist in Kent
The romantic, emotive tone of the flowing harp strings makes our Kent harpists a popular choice for wedding ceremonies and wedding breakfasts, plus the compactness of a solo harpist when compared to an ensemble or band is a real advantage for a smaller or more reserved kind of function. Other events for which we'd recommend a harpist in Kent include drinks receptions, restaurants, private functions, garden parties, charity or corporate events. If you envision your event as a pleasant, relaxing affair with a good deal of talking, a Kent harpist won't cause you to raise your voice – but you may have to take a moment every once in a while to marvel at the incredible talent on display.
Book Local Harpists in Kent
In terms of genre, our Kent harpists are highly diverse, even surprising at times. Given their orchestral backgrounds, classical music is certainly their forte; Vivaldi's Spring (the Four Seasons), Beethoven's Ode to Joy and Strauss's Blue Danube all feature in their sets, as well as many jazz standards, operatic arias and traditional celtic folk. But fans of more contemporary music will also be pleased to hear themes from such films as Braveheart, Disney's Aladdin, the Lord of the Rings and Spiderman, rock and pop hits by 1960s bands the Beatles, the Animals and Bob Dylan, and the modern chart hits of Snow Patrol, Florence and the Machine and Mumford and Sons. Whatever your musical tastes may be, you're sure to enjoy the myriads of melodies our Kent harpists will flawlessly deliver to your eager ears.
We can hire out a local Kent harpist to Ashford, Canterbury, Dartford, Deal, Dover, Folkestone, Gillingham, Gravesend, Herne Bay, Maidstone, Sevenoaks, Sittingbourne, St Peters, Tunbridge Wells, Whitstable and anywhere in between.
Bands for Hire is a professional service, and as such we endeavour to make your experience with us as interesting, enjoyable and straightforward as possible. If you have any queries, please contact us.
