Dear friends of Harp music,I apologize for not keeping in touch while I was on sabbatical Slovakia last semester. My family and I had a great time, it was really lovely to be close to my family and an amazing experience for the children to attend an international school. We returned right before Christmas and I have been back to performing and teaching since.I would like to let you know of the opportunities to hear my harp this month!As I write this, I am in Springfield getting ready to play a concert with a Springfield Symphony here tonight.Back in Columbia, I’m looking forward to performing for romantic evening on Valentine’s Day at the Old Hawthorne Club. The club provides such a great atmosphere for couples celebrating this special day and I’ve been honored to be part of it for last several years.On February 22nd my harp will be part of Ash Wednesday service at Broadway Christian church at 7 PM. Please join us for this solemn service at the beginning of Lent. I am preparing some very special new music specifically for this service.Some of you may have noticed that while we continued Harp and Healing throughout November with my video submissions from Slovakia, we didn’t continue in December or January. We felt it was difficult to sustain our audience while I was not present in person. We will restart Harp and Healing on March 7th, so if you love this free service, please support us with your presence in March. We will then continue on first Tuesdays in April and May before parting for the summer. Past services from last couple of years can be found on BCC YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLh7AdlEyIfW-zaksW1PUPZh_vjkaOWFFbTalking about YouTube, please visit my own channel if you are not subscribed, please consider subscribing! I have been posting new videos weekly throughout last year and plan to continue to do so.Around this time of the year I do get contacted a lot with requests to play wedding ceremonies late spring, summer and this fall. I always enjoy being part of this special day! My calendar is definitely filling up, if you know of anyone getting married who would like harp music, contacting me earlier rather than later is always best as I can only accommodate one wedding per Saturday.I wish you all happy Valentine’s Day this month, if you wish to listen to my music with your loved ones, it is available on iTunes, Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer and YouTube.Last but not least, I will have a new album coming out later this year, all the music was recorded last year, since then it has been edited and mixed but it’s still work in progress. I’ll keep you posted on the further development and release date!Have a great month,
