Overview

I am a harpist and pianist that performs throughout Northern California and in Europe. I am also the lead musician in Amethyst Trio, a Classical trio found here on GS and at the Amethyst Trio website.
I play in Classical, Celtic and popular contemporary styles. Having played hundreds of weddings and events, I am a good choice if you want someone who can make your special day go smoothly and beautifully.

Enhanced Our Party

Lana helped make our friends and family lunch at our senior living community a beautiful event. This was the second time that we've worked with her, and we will again. She's a true pro and talent.

Wonderful musician, and a true professional

Lara delivered an excellent performance at our private event. She was incredibly professional and great to work with - helping us choose the music, working with us on the schedule, getting organized. Our guests loved her performance!

Beautiful music

Lara was a professional. She arrived on time, and played beautiful music. The harp was a perfect addition to our Holiday party, She is multi talented and also played the piano we have in the house. This was a lovely treat and added a nice switch in the middle of the party.

What to expect

Beautiful and elegant harp or piano music for your event. For events where piano is requested, but there is no piano on site, I bring my top-of-the-line Yamaha 88-key stage piano/keyboard with authentic grand piano sound. For harp, you may choose from my Celtic or Classical style harp.
