    harps.jpgI Play the Harp

     Celtic, or folk, harp. I play for meditations, labyrinth walks, workshops, teas. I play to set an atmosphere from where you can imagine new ideas and commit to solutions that change the world. Not asking for much, am I?

    This is the guy who made my big harp: Lewis Creek Instruments

    This is the guy who made my little harp (Harpsicle): William Rees Instruments

    Mainly in the style of the woodlands Indians, meaning a rich, full sound. Right now I provide therapeutic music to patients on the cardiology and oncology floors at Suburban Hospital in Bethesda. I also play every month at the Washington National Cathedral labyrinth walk (see schedule below).

    The flutes sound really nice and usually make you forget where you are because you go to a new place that's much nicer.

    This is the guy who makes most of the flutes I buy, in case you're interested:  Woodland Voices

    If you want to learn more about NAFs, meet local players and makers in the Washington DC area, and come jam for a few hours, send me your email address and I'll add it to our monthly email list for flute circles in the DC area (Potomac and Northern Virginia). Or you can visit our Potomac Native American Flute Festival Web site. Our festival this year is March 26-28 at Unitarian Universalist Church of Arlington.

     

    Performance Schedule

    Washington National Cathedral Labyrinth (Cathedral Crossroads):  On the last Tuesday of every month I provide live background music using the Harp and Native American Flutes for the Cathedral's Crossroads program, which includes a labyrinth walk and other free events. Get full info for each month Washington National Cathedral Crossroads.

    I also play solo or with other Native American Flute players as "Osiyo" at area locations.
