Dear friends of harp music, I would like to reach out at the beginning of this special month and invite you to hear some beautiful music! First, let's start with the Harp and Healing special Blue Christmas, that will happen tomorrow, Tuesday December 5th at Broadway Christian Church at 6.00PM. This time of year while joyous for most, is difficult for many among us as who deal with loss, grief, illness, or other problems. Join the Broadway ministerial team, myself and artist Jenny McGee for this contemplative service tomorrow. Jenny will bless us with live painting during the service. I will have my Christmas CDs available for sale following this service. Later this week and next I will have a few orchestra Holiday concerts, this Saturday the 9th with the Springfield Symphony at 2.30 and 7.30 in Hammons Hall and then back in Columbia on Saturday the 16th at the Missouri United Methodist Church.

November 2023 Newsletter

Dear friends of harp music, I hope you are having a beautiful fall! I would like to challenge you to invite a friend and enjoy some live music this month! First, I would like to invite you to my Harp Concert this Saturday, October 28th at 7.00pm in the 4th Street Theatre in Moberly. I know it's 40 minutes away, but please consider coming. I don't play solo recitals often due to my otherwise busy schedule, so it takes extra time and energy to prepare and it would be lovely to see a good turn out for this live performance. The concert will be about an hour in length and I will be covering music from classical, through romantic and popular to fun and one of a kind piece like the Baroque Flamenco! For those of you who come to Harp and Healing, this is a very different energy level in a beautifully restored historic theatre! Back here in Columbia, I will be collaborating with the Columbia Chorale on Chichester Psalms by Bernstein and Gloria by Poulenc. The performance will be on November 4th at 7.00pm at Launer Auditorium, Columbia College, 901 Rogers Street and the concert is called Perseverance of Hope.

In November we will be at the Missouri United Methodist Church, 204 S Ninth Street. The service will be as always on the first Tuesday, November 7th...
