about

When I was 3 my parents owned a Celtic harp for a short time. I remember the magical resonances of the strings that reached up and over my head, they seemed to go on forever. It made such an impression and I was heartbroken when the harp was sold. I have carried this vivid memory with me all these years and held, buried within, the deep knowledge that somehow I was connected to this instrument, more like a living creature than any other.
When I first laid my hands upon these strings, at the end of June 2012, it was the unlocking of a deep creative well and the channelling of intense inspiration, coming from the harp itself, as it softly laid its enchantment over me.
With this EP I offer you some of the first fruits from the tree.

about

Jess Ward Wales, UK

I come from Pembrokeshire in West Wales where I have been lucky to live all my life in a land of crashing waves, rugged cliffs, mirrored pools, twisting oaks, windswept thorn and peeping primrose.
After many years performing and creating with my guitar I have now found my dream instrument in the Celtic lever harp.
I play a Telor model, made at Telynau Teifi, The Harp Centre of Wales in Llandysul. ... more
