The Human Harp Stand ~ Electra’s Lyre
When I pack for tour, I have to get EVERYTHING into two 50-lb bags – and I mean everything … including my instrument. So when the Sensoria Festival invited me to perform a piece from my one-woman musical “Electra’s Lyre” at my April 11th...![Music, Dance, Opera, Harp & the Pig-Heaven of Collaboration on my Own Music](https://hipharp.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/christine-van-a-dhc-ccpc-nocredit_v2-1024x607.png)
Music, Dance, Opera, Harp & the Pig-Heaven of Collaboration on my Own Music
I’ve toured as a performing composer for years, but I’m always happiest when when I’m a guest artist in residence – for at least a few days so I get to really connect with other artists and performers. So my trip last week to Charlotte, NC, and...![How do you want to show up?](https://hipharp.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/everything-i-do-experience-humanity-dhc-jacobson-square_v3.jpg)
How do you want to show up?
In a recent conversation with one of my coaches, she asked me: How do you want to show up? In the world. In your own life. How are you NOT showing up yet that you’d like to change? What’s are the REAL reasons you find that difficult? I was surprised at...![Ghost Map of Creative Dreams](https://hipharp.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/HYMM-blurry-swirl-lighter-no-text.jpg)
Ghost Map of Creative Dreams
I admit it. I watch videos while I do harp warmups each morning. But I recently made a big switch when I ran out of “Jane the Virgin” reruns. I switched to TED talks. Last week I watched Steven Johnson’s: a time when people emptied their chamber pots onto their...![Bring on the Ballerinas!](https://hipharp.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/surprise-harp-with-dancers-smaller.jpg)
Bring on the Ballerinas!
Last weekend I was assailed by a band of curious, inventive ballerinas — and I was thrilled about it. I was performing a benefit concert for the Ponte Vedra Cultural Center’s music therapy outreach program near Jacksonville, Florida. It was a gala concert...![CRASH!

A Marketing Expert and a Grammy-Nominated Musician explore the question tonight on the new Social Media Platform Blab.im. then head to “How is Marketing like Music?” If you’d rather just ‘lurk’ (as Blabbers call those who just watch...![Is Poetry Music without Sound?](https://hipharp.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/music-arc-rainbow-poetry_v2.jpg)
Is Poetry Music without Sound?
This is kind of how music looks in my mind. And I hear myself say this all the time: “The key to creative freedom is structure.” I don’t mean structure imposed from outside – but internal structure. Like bones. Like an arc. I ‘get’...![Stories of my Demise …](https://hipharp.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/polly-metamorphosis-816x1024.jpg)
