I hired Veronica after seeing great reviews for her, and when I spoke with her on the phone, I felt at ease right away! She is lovely and so accommodating. Her playing blew our wedding guests away and she was the most talked about element for our wedding day. We could not recommend her enough! Thank you Veronica for making our day magical and perfect!
Response from Veronica Ní Ghrianáin:
Hi Cosette,
Reading your wonderful review has made my day-thank you so much for taking the time to write this! I wish you and your husband a lifetime of happiness!
I hired Veronica to play the harp for my proposal. She was professional, flexible, and constantly making sure that everything was perfect for the big moment.
I could not recommend her services more highly!
Response from Veronica Ní Ghrianáin:
Hi Marshall!

-The day of the event I will arrive approximately 45-55 minutes before I am to begin playing so as to tune the harp and set up.
-If the ceremony or event is outdoors certain conditions must be met. I cannot play in the rain, or in the very cold. The harp also must be kept out of direct sunlight.

Veronica's performances and music. Veronica studied at the Royal School of Music, Molloy College, MSM and with the world renowned piano pedagogue, Edna Golandsky, Director of the Golandsky Institute and with harp pedagogue, Jeanne Fitz-Goldstein.
Veronica has performed at Carnegie Hall, Steinway Hall and other famous venues such as The Plaza Hotel and across New York and Europe. A diverse performer, who enjoys playing music from many genres, she is sought after for weddings, events and other performances. "I believe the perfect music for an event will have a mix of classical, Jazz, contemporary and folk music," Veronica says, because she believes that couples are seeking diverse musical choices for their big day. "Some brides want to walk down the aisle to Canon in D and then process out to "All You Need Is Love" by the Beatles. My goal is to ensure they can have a unique set list that will cater to their style." Veronica also frequently performs as part of a harp and flute duo for events. "This particular combination of flute and harp is absolutely sublime and can be full enough to create a beautiful ambiance, full of vivid colors and textures!"
Currently, Veronica has been writing her own music, a mixture of folk song writing and solo compositions for her forthcoming EP, expected to be released in 2017.
Veronica resides in New York City, where she maintains a full schedule of teaching and performance gigs.
