Harpists
Harpists, like most things come in all shapes and sizes.
Listed below are a number of harpists of varying types. The reference
to the type of harp is an indication between a lever (smaller folk or
celtic harp) and the pedal (concert harp). To help you narrow down the
selection the list is split between professional/gig harpists and
student/amateur harpists.
As you can see there are not many harpists around and they
generally will travel. However, in order to help you narrow down
your search, the home suburb for each harpist is included.
