about
The group’s focus is the unique and hauntingly-beautiful integration of the world’s three oldest instruments (harps, flutes and percussion) with rare medieval instruments, poetry and song. Unique instruments include the ethereal-sounding bass psaltery (the only one in the world), and the medieval organistrum and nyckelharpas. Winter Harp features poet Alan Woodland, classical harpist Jill Whitman, Celtic harpist and singer Lori Pappajohn, medieval instrumentalist Joaquin Ayala, percussionist Lauri Lyster, flutist Kenichi Ueda and child performers Emilie Whitman and Shylo Sharity. They have released several CDs, and are known for their yearly Christmas-time performances around Vancouver, BC.
