The most beautiful and romantic of instruments, the harp adds a unique accompaniment to that special occasion.

Perfect for weddings, cocktail parties, corporate hospitality and other exclusive events, it will enchant your guests with its melodious lilting sound whilst remaining soft and unobtrusive.

Ornate and portable, the harp is a delightful alternative to more traditional forms of background music.

The harp is a versatile instrument and lends itself well to most musical genres. Kate’s extensive repertoire spans light jazz, baroque and classical, folk, show tunes and popular hits.

She offers a professional and bespoke service to suit your needs.

Born in Glasgow, Kate began playing the harp at a young age. Soon after beginning the harp, she became a Junior Scholar of the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama and won numerous prizes at the National Mod and the Edinburgh Music Festival.

She went on to complete a performance degree at Trinity College of Music, London studying under Sioned Williams, principal harpist of the BBC Symphony Orchestra.

Kate has recently won both the Croydon Music Festival and the United Kingdom Harp Association Prize. She frequently gives recitals as a soloist, with chamber groups around Britain, and has performed at the Royal Festival Hall, the Barbican Centre, St John’s, Smith Square and Southwark Cathedral.

She performs with a variety of orchestras, including, the BBC Symphony Orchestra, Scottish Sinfonia, and the National Musicians’ Symphony Orchestra. She plays in the Aurora Duo, a flute and harp ensemble who recently performed Mozart’s flute and harp concerto, at the Royal Naval Chapel, Greenwich.

In addition to her solo and orchestral experience, Kate performs at such hotels as the Langham Hilton, Sheraton Park Tower, Balmoral Hotel in Edinburgh and Glamis Castle and has recently returned from a trip to Lapland, Finland, where she was resident harpist.
