I play a Dusty 36 string
lever harp. These are sometimes called folk harps, but my harp is a
full-sized, walnut floor harp, similar in size to the one in these
photos.
As a harper, I play mostly Medieval, Renaissance, Celtic, and classical music, with some modern pieces of my own arrangement thrown in as they fit into the colour and style of my gig book. I live in Fort Collins, Colorado - about an hour north of Denver and an hour south of Cheyenne, Wyoming. |

I am available to play for
private parties, dinners, teas, weddings, and receptions. I also do
business parties.
I am happy to do demonstrations (private, at parties or in schools) and especially like to show children the harp. It is a pleasure for them and for me as it truly is a magical instrument. I am also available for beginner's lessons. Thank you for your interest. If you are in need of a harper with my skills, then please contact me at harp-at-vanmaren.us to discuss availability and price. A demo CD is available upon request. If you find that you are not in my part of the country, please check out the Harpers For Harmony link to find a harper in your area.
