Harp and Piano Lessons

 

Emily Wyatt offers skilled instruction in both the piano and Celtic harp. Her compassionate  approach has enabled students aged 5 to 79 to make progress in their musical abilities.

 

Why Take Harp Lessons?

 

Especially in the beginning, careful instruction is essential to a harpist. The hand position and technique gained in the first few months determine your success and enjoyment of the instrument. “Teaching yourself” is a risky option.

 

Emily Wyatt now offers instruction in the Celtic harp. Come to her family’s lovely Victorian home in the country and learn in a safe environment with a challenging and yet sympathetic teacher.

 

Emily’s Approach

 

Emily does not adhere to one specific harp method (i.e. Salzedo, Grandjany) but encourages an approach personalized to the student’s physique and goals.

 

She focuses on Celtic style harp playing, which is characterized by lovely melodies, modal harmonies,, and years of tradition. She can also provide instruction in:

·    Arranging for the harp

·    Playing “by ear”

·    Accompanying voice with the harp

·    Performance coaching

 

Fees

 

Lesson fees are $30 an hour, which can be divided into 30 or 45-minute sessions. Lessons are also available bi-weekly or monthly. (Frequent instruction, however, is essential to quick and solid progress on the harp.)
