Caernarfon Harp Festival

18-19 April 2011

Festival Director: ELINOR BENNETT

The annual Harp Festival will take place again this year during the Easter break, and harpists of every age are warmly invited to participate in the activities at Galeri, Caernarfon.

The distinguished tutors will include Eira Lyn Jones (RNCM), Elinor Bennett, Gwenan Gibbard, Angharad Wyn Jones, Helen Davies-Mikkelborg and Gillian Green who will give individual and group tuition. Participants can book a free ticket for the two evening concerts.

The Guest artist will be ALAN STIVELL, the iconic Breton harpist, singer and the main architect of the sensational awakening of interest in the Celtic harp and Breton traditional music and dance in the 1970’s. We shall also celebrate the tercentenary of the birth of one of Wales’ folk heroes. Dafydd Owen, (David of the White Rock) is believed to have been born in 1711. Come to celebrate and learn with us!
