May 9, 2023Highly Recommended Harpist for Any Occasion
Lisa performed the most beautiful music for my husband's Celebration of Life. She even went above and beyond to learn a song that was special to us and she played it as well -- there was not a dry eye in the house! It was so moving and so personal. Her ability to play classical and modern music is outstanding. On top of her gifted music abilities, she was an absolute angel to work with - very professional, trusting and compassionate. I highly recommend Lisa from Harp Notes for any occasion where you want beautiful harp music or you are looking to take your event to a whole new level. She is outstanding!

March 18, 2022Good Performance..., lacked voice amplification
Good performance, overall. The performer's voice was difficult to hear without some sort of amplification, which she did not have for the program. Other than that, it was a pretty good program. It will not be something held here regularly, as it was very expensive for the budget here.

Hi Lisa,
Thank you very much for taking the time to review my performance. I enjoyed giving the program at your Assisted Living Community. In the future, please request voice amplification at time of booking, as it is not a service that I automatically provide. My pricing is a standard discounted rate that is specified by the American Federation of Musicians for Assisted Living Communities. Thank you for hiring me to entertain your Residents.
I hope to see you in the future.
Best regards,
Lisa Handman
