Hire a Manchester Wedding Harpist
The harp is often characterised as the instrument of love and romance, assisting many a fairytale prince serenade the object of his desires from beneath her window, and this tradition is still very much alive to this day – our Manchester harpists are a popular choice for wedding breakfasts, wedding ceremonies and wedding receptions. The point when the harp strikes up with Wagner's Bridal Chorus or Beethoven's Ode to Joy as the bride emerges at the end of the aisle is a show stopping moment you're unlikely to forget. Our harpists in Manchester are also frequently booked for event such as garden parties, graduations, private dinner functions, drinks receptions, charity events, corporate events and shop opening – anything you wish to come across as a calm and dignified cause for celebration, but still want to be able to hear your guests' conversations above the music.
The harp is easily as versatile as any other solo instrument; despite its characteristic tone, it's capable of replicating an array of genres, and our harpists in Manchester are more than up to the challenge. After mastering Handel, Mozart, Puccini and Purcell, it was only a matter of time before the pop and rock of Daft Punk, Bob Marley, Bruno Mars, the Eurythmic and James Blunt were given the same treatment. Our Manchester harpists have also tried their fluid hands at theme tunes from such iconic films, television shows and musicals as Breakfast at Tiffany's, Braveheart, the Wizard of Oz, Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables and Winnie the Pooh. Available also on request are several blues and jazz standards, celtic and traditional folk numbers, tangos, operatic arias and Bollywood and Jewish Wedding music.
