Harpist Peggy Skomal via GigiSalad

Peggy Skomal was the headliner at our yoga-meditation-fashion show. Her performance was nothing short of masterful. She added a warm and soothing touch to our private event from the moment she arrived through her performance, to the final chord and finger-dance played on her angelic harp. As attendees arrived, Peggy was engaging and noticeably polite, welcoming our guests as if they were her own family. As an event producer, communication is key and pivotal to the success of our events, and Peggy exemplified how communication and attention to details should be employed in leading up to the day of any event. By the time evening arrived, trust had been built between Peggy and our crew and they knew we didn't have to be concerned with Peggy's entertainment area. She had her fireside space well-captained, and our guest, warmly captured. Her presence was confident.

"I felt her music in my heart" was the mention by the night.

We were ecstatic to have Peggy and her special harp talent at our gathering, and we are joyful to provide her magical experience and sophisticated harp touch a high RECOMMEND for any event you may want memorable.

Best wishes for your continued success for your important work!

Unbelievably talented and SO NICE.

Peggy was everything: kind, accommodating, smart, funny, and most importantly talented as heck. I hired Peggy for my best friend’s retirement “extravaganza”, and the evening was a tremendous success, in part by Peggy’s beautiful playing and attention to detail.
I couldn’t have asked for a better Harpist, or a better experience.
Kudos to Peggy!

Professional, Classy, and Elegant

Peggy's harp music was amazing for the funeral service that we had. She was able to learn requested songs, and played them beautifully. She was punctual (actually early) and was able to stay later when the service ran a little long.

I highly recommend Peggy for your event, hopefully it is a happier event than a funeral. In the event that I need a harpist in the future, I’ll definitely be reaching out to Peggy.

Peace be with you and your family.
