Great!
Thank you so much,
Susan Sheftz❤️
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank-you Susan! What a pleasure it was to play for your Golden Anniversary and wishing you many more happy years with your wonderful husband and family.
Blessings to you both!
Ms. Skomal was simply extraordinary. We will definitely be booking her for future events.
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank-you again Karla! So honored to add to your special event.
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.
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank-you Pidge! Your event was amazing and it was my pleasure to cap off the evening. Because of your expert planning, everything was in place for me to comfortably perform for your attendees. I throughly enjoyed meeting everyone afterwards as well.
Best wishes for your continued success for your important work!
She was wonderful.
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thanks Sam. It was my honor to play for your loving tribute.
Blessings to you and your family.
Very magical experience
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
It was my pleasure to play for your dear abuelita’s birthday celebration. Many blessings to your family!
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!
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank you, Mark! You are wonderful to work with and I’m so glad I could add to your special tribute. I especially enjoyed accompanying the talented singing trio for your requested song. A great night it was and all the best to you.
Peggy was a complete joy to have play at my event. She was professional, on time and a true artist at her craft. Highly recommend her. Everyone of my guest was raving about her.
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thanks Robyn! It was my pleasure to play for your special day. Loved meeting your friends and family and best wishes for your little baby girl’s arrival 🥰

Peggy was professional, she was the first to arrive at the venue and the last one to leave. she was courteous, polite and heartwarming. she played beautifully and rendered the music to my pleasure. the guests at the funeral loved her music and ethics too. I highly recommend her and might ask her again in the future. Thanks Peggy, you did not disappoint! Blessings!
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank-you Maria, it was my pleasure to play for the tribute to your husband. I felt his blessing when I performed the Filipino music you chose.
Peace be with you and your family 🎶

We were so pleased with Peggy's beautiful playing of the harp. Can't wait to have her back! THANK YOU PEGGY! AWESOME!!!!
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank-you Jayne, I throughly enjoyed playing for your residents at your beautiful Mother’s Day brunch. Until next time!
Peggy was wonderful. She exceeded all expectations!!
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thanks Zelene &Mike! I loved playing your requests and adding to your special evening. It was a pleasure to meet you both and congratulations on your anniversary 💕
Peggy is lovely. She arrived on time and played very well. I was able to communicate with her before the event, she took requests. She made the event really special. She plays beautifully. I will definitely hire her again. She exceeded our expectations.
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank-you so much, it was my pleasure to play for the beautiful tribute to your sister. The songs requested were perfect and I was very moved.
Peace and blessings to your family.
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.
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank-you, Brian, for your kind words. It was my pleasure to be asked to perform for your father-in-law’s memorial service and especially loved playing your special musical requests. I was very moved and touched by the beautiful tribute you planned to honor his life.
Peace be with you and your family.
Peggy was Amazing!
She was prompt. Kind. And extremely talented. Her energy is beautiful. I would use her again and again. I highly recommend her to everyone. She gets 10 stars in my book.
Thank you!
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thanks Erica! It was my pleasure to add to your special day! All the best wishes to you both...
Made the event that much more elegant. Would hire again in an instant.
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thanks Muna! Good luck with your amazing art exhibit!
Peggy was amazing. She helped in creating a peaceful and classic ambiance for my sister's baby shower. We made a few special requests and even asked for a specific song that she learned and performed for us the day of the baby shower- it made my sister's day.
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thanks Johana! I had a wonderful time playing for your sister and all your friends and family. You planned a beautiful party!
Best wishes to the new little one...
Peggy the harpist is an amazing artist and performer. She made my grandmothers 90th Birthday one to remember! The beautiful sounds of her harp will remain in my memory forever. Thank you Peggy!
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank-you Camille! I’m so glad I could add to her special celebration and loved adding your request for “10,000 Reasons “. It was a beautiful party...
I would highly recommend Ms. Peggy Skomal as your harpist. She was professional in every way. Her choice of music was amazing! She plays the harp like an angel! You will not be disappointed! Many who attended our event commented on her beautiful harp music! Thank you, Peggy!
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thanks, Maya, I had a wonderful time playing for your beautiful event!

Best and most beautiful sound to my ears through the whole event. Peggy was extremely professional, very talented and made our wedding ceremony more beautiful then expected. I would recommend her for any event and can guarantee all your expectations would be exceeded. Thank you again Peggy.
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank-you Brandon! I so enjoyed creating your “Perfect Canon” (Sheeran +Pachelbel) for your processional music. It was a lovely wedding and much joy and good wishes to you both!
Peggy was great and exactly what we wanted for our wedding! She is really sweet and professional.
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank-you Natalya! Your house was full of love and it was my pleasure to add to your wedding.
Peggy's harp was a beautiful musical instrument to see and hear. Her extensive repertoire, professional look and attitude made the planning of the event go smoothly. Her harp music was the finishing touch to my mom's funeral. Especially since my mom loved all things of Angels.
Response from Peggy Skomal Harpist & Ensembles:
Thank-you Cris for your kind words. It was my honor to play for your mom’s memorial-what a special lady and what a wonderful life she had!
