Have you always wanted to play the harp?

If you've ever wanted to learn to play this special instrument, you've come to the right place. 

Harpist Kathryn Ely is professionally trained and certified.  She holds both a Bachelor's Degree in Harp Performance and a Bachelor's Degree in Music Education from the University of Illinois.  She has the rare distinction of having studied privately with both of the great masters of the harp world - Carlos Salzedo (Curtis Institute of Music) and Marcel Grandjany (Juilliard School of Music).  Kathryn has the experience and expertise to tailor her teaching to most benefit each person, and each person's own unique hands.

Whether you are a child or an adult who has always wanted to play, wish to play the smaller lever harp (Celtic, Folk, Irish) or the concert grand (Pedal) harp,   Kathryn will help you attain your goals, be they for personal pleasure or a professional career.   Read what her students of all ages have to say.
