Rehearsals
Pre-Recorded Lessons: Once a month a new ensemble pre-recorded lesson will be released, including a teaching video for each individual part, a professionally videoed play along for each part and with all parts playing as an ensemble.
Live Rehearsals Online: On the 1st Tuesday of each month we will have a live session to rehearse together the pieces and for students to ask any questions and glitch fix. The replay will be posted following each session.
Live Rehearsals In-Person: For harpists based close enough to Cardiff, the ensemble will rehearse the CD pieces during their face to face meet up sessions over the year. If you are interested in joining the face to face ensemble please email me on info@harpwales.com.
Recording
CD Recording In-Person: All harpists from our Dynamic Harps global family are invited to join us in person for The Harp Project ’23 recording retreat on the 13th-16th October 2023 at a beautiful manor near Cardiff, South Wales, UK (accommodation and food on site). We will rehearse and record the CD during this week, alongside enjoying concerts, workshops and a celebration dinner together.
CD Recording Online: The final track of the CD will be an audio collaboration. Harpists from around the globe will be invited to record an audio line for the CD and then have their part edited into the full group performance, thus opening the possibility of everyone being able to join us, even if the in-person recording is not possible. This track will be have parts available to play lap harps without levers (as well as parts for other harp types) to make it as inclusive as possible.
