The Gift: What happens when you Improvise on Christmas?
In 1995 I recorded a series of 15 carols from around the world on solo harp which became The Gift. But it wasn’t ’til a few years ago that I realized I could create a digital download album of it on BANDCAMP – so it’s finally available...![Congratulations, You Made it This Far!

Love Gone Bad (Lyrics)

If you ever got dumped, or knew you had to dump your lover, then you know what “Love Gone Bad” is all about. So call in the...![Closer to You (Lyrics)](https://www.hipharp.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/closer-to-you-lyricquote-square-1000x675.jpg)

Flute & Harp for Christmas
A million years ago, when I lived in the S.F. Bay Area, I met a flutist named Schawkie Roth. I’d been playing the harp for maybe 5 or 6 years by that time, and Schawkie decided we were destined to play together. He was creating meditation music and I was...![Holiday Music is Here … whether you like it or not](https://hipharp.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/holiday-music-is-here-whether-you-like-it-or-not-v2.jpg)
Holiday Music is Here … whether you like it or not
This post was originally published Dec 1, 2016. Holiday music was the reason I became a harpist … but maybe not for the reason you think. I could be pretty snobby about what I sang when I was a young adult, and when my college chorus was singing a...![Celebrate December with Me](https://hipharp.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/elf-head-trilogy.jpg)
