Past news:
New in 2020, this is a chance for NZ harpists to play their favourite Christmas carol or holiday music, video your best performance, and enter the competition for $50 spot prizes.
Entries close at 8pm on December 24th, and judging will happen in the few weeks following this.
If you don't have anything much in the way of Christmas/holiday music, check out the Harp Column Music's suggestions for the holiday season (2018/2019/2020) you could also put 'carols' 'holiday music' or 'Christmas music' in the search engine of your favourite online harp shop, or sheet music plus, and see what comes up!
Some of my favourites - pedal and lever
