How a harpist enriches your wedding day or event
Local harpist Patricia Daly speaks to Newry Times about Christmas Evenings, New Year’s Eve, Mediaeval Banquets and Launches.
“Hello my lovely friends. Have you ever wondered how a harpist should dress?
Are you and your guests to whom I perform sensitive enough to observe and experience the delicate sound breeze of harp music performed by an elegant Harpist in her Red “Cache” gown?
Red is associated with meanings of love, passion, desire, sensitivity, romance, joy, strength, leadership, courage, vigour, willpower, vibrancy, radiance, and determination.
Can you just imagine the elegance of this beautiful red “Cache” gown as part of my attire while playing my harp for you and how well one compliments the other?
I love the style and colour and how it enhances a performance, especially around this Christmas season; a time of festivity and sparkling magic!
The colour red has the quality of not only enhancing the adjacent colours but along with the harp music it creates the intensity of solemness in the moment of a magical setting.
What sort of music can be played on a harp?
The harp sounds wonderful in a church or castle setting played acoustically. The design of the soundboard allows the music to travel nicely providing a soft ambient background for guests to enjoy.
I specialize in Celtic, baroque, light classical and popular music and also arrange music for harp and compose for special occasions.
I have good news for you – I am adding current chart material to my wedding repertoire: The following pieces have proven very popular for this year’s weddings so far:
1. Adele’s “Make You Feel My Love”
2. John Legend’s “All of Me”
3. Ellie Goulding’s “How Long Will I Love You”
4. Snow Patrol’s “Chasing Cars
