Harriet Adie - Harpist Full Description
Award winning harpist Harriet is in high demand for weddings and functions due to her expertise and performing flair. With over 15 years of experience in the industry, she combines her musical talent with absolute professionalism and a ‘can do’ attitude. Harriet’s harp has taken her to diverse locations and star studded events including a performance in front of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II as part of the celebrations for her Diamond Jubilee, an appearance at the BRIT Awards and a live duet on TV with Dermot O'Leary for Channel 4's Celebrity Big Brother. A versatile performer, not only has she has dressed up as an angel to appear at London’s Fabric Night Club , but she has also performed for BBC 1's Songs of Praise and for Channel 5’s The Hotel Inspector. For several years she performed regular recitals on cruise ships including Cunard’s legendary QE2, and also Fred Olsen and P & O cruises. Harriet has played in all the major London Hotels including Claridges, The Ritz, the Savoy, and the Dorchester Hotel. Harriet will tailor her music to suit each individual event and client’s tastes. Her repertoire is enormously varied and she is happy to take requests with advance warning, and where possible, on the day. She is as equally happy performing light Classical, folk or jazz tunes, as she is pop and Bollywood music. If you would like help choosing music, she is able to provide a comprehensive selection of pieces which work well for the different parts of the day. The right sounds can inspire and complement a magical event, and Harriet will ensure that the music for your day is unique and a lasting memory. Harriet performs mainly on her full-size concert grand harp but can also provide a smaller Clarsach (folk harp) harp (useful when space is at a premium), and for a more contemporary feel, even a pearlescent white electric harp! Harriet concentrates most of her bookings in London and the Home Counties area, but will also consider events further afield depending on

It made the ceremony feel incredibly special
I just wanted to drop you a quick email to say a huge thank you again for playing so beautifully at our wedding on Saturday - it really made the ceremony feel incredibly special. I hope you didn't feel too abandoned that most people were out on the terrace during the drinks reception in the end (who would have thought the weather would be good enough...!). It was so nice to hear the music floating out of the doors and I know that my Grandma really enjoyed her near private recital inside. Thank you again for your help on choosing the music - we really felt it was the perfect selection. Do let me know if you'd like us to leave a review (5 stars, of course) anywhere online.

'Your harp music was perfect'
Re our Wedding Day 6th January 2017 We Just wanted to say a big thank you for your wonderful playing. Your Harp music was Perfect for the setting. Although Claire only got to hear a small amount, I thoroughly enjoyed your playing before the service and the set pieces we chose. We had so many great comments about your playing and I wanted to pass that on. Our day seemed to go so fast and there was just not enough time to stop and take it all in. Thank you so much once again Peter & Claire

It was so exactly what we wanted + simply sublime
Sarah and I wanted to contact you and offer our belated but sincere thanks for the amazing job you did for us on our Wedding day at the Ashmolean in August. We and our guests were blown away by the setting and the atmosphere created by your wonderful playing during our ceremony, It was so exactly what we wanted and simply sublime in its execution, thank you so very much. We were whisked away with our guests after the ceremony and apologise for not having the time to speak with you before you left the building. Stairway to heaven was just perfect for us and, if you ever play it again, we would love a recording of you playing if you ever have the time to do so.
