We had a big Irish family gathering and Mary played during cocktails and dinner.
Heavenly music.
Perfect accompaniment.
But Mary was so much more than an accomplished harpist.
She took the initiative to learn (by ear!) a couple tunes that I had requested and with which she was previously unfamiliar. And she mastered them beautifully! I was moved to tears.
Mary’s personality won us over from the start and we really felt like she was one of the clan!
MARY made our event super special. Everyone can’t stop talking about her! Hugs all around!
We’ll just have to come up with an excuse to have her again!

The cost to hire a harpist in Boston, Massachusetts will vary depending on the length of the performance and the harpist’s skill level. Experienced harpists cost more than those just getting started performing live music at events. For larger gatherings with a bigger budget, you might consider a full ensemble that includes a harp rather than a solo harpist. Contact local harpists and classical ensembles to get a quote customized for your event.
While browsing profiles for Boston harpists, look through photos, watch videos, and listen to audio samples to learn more about their style and setlist. Most harpists can play a variety of traditional classical music and modern pop music with a classical twist. Read reviews from past clients to see if they have experience with events like yours. When talking with performers, discuss important details like venue space, setup times, performance length, and scheduled breaks.
