Margaret played for our Celebration of Life. She arrived early and played beautifully.

Margaret was an absolute pleasure to work with. She performed at my church's first Sunday of Advent. Her music was beautiful. Throughout the week, my office has been called, or I have received emails of appreciation for her wonderful performance.

Margaret was an absolute treasure for my intimate birthday celebration. She performed a repertoire of music that created a whimsical, warm and soothing ambiance. The flow from one composition to the next was seamless; she instinctively faded out while we had a group meditation and began to play as we opened our eyes. It was magic! My guests luxuriated on the lawn listening to Margaret's music. To my delight, her husband accompanied her during a few songs with guitar and woodwind. I am so thankful for her presence and performance. Book Margaret for your special event!

Margaret Davis was a stellar addition to my event. She showed up on time, was adaptable to my last minute request and played beautifully. I look forward to having her play at our event in 2017.

Margaret is excellent. She was on time, played for one and a half hours and was so kind in sharing moments with the audience. She is tremendous and we plan on inviting her back to future performances.
Thank you so much!

Margaret played for our wedding on 6/28. Although I never got a chance to meet Margaret, she was there in plenty of time and her sensibilities were perfect. It was a perfect complement to all that went on that day. Thank you again!!!

Margaret and her music set the tone for our ceremony. We were looking for a romantic style and she provided that as there in no day more romantic than ones wedding day. Would love to have her again if I find I am in need of a harpist.

Margaret played at our wedding at Preservation Park in Oakland and did an amazing job. Her performance was flawless and we all loved her. She is very easy to work with and is very accommodating. I would definitely recommend having her play at your next event.
