Winter Harp Competition
Winter Harp is hosting a harp competition this year in recognition of our 30th anniversary. The competition piece, On Gossamer Wings, was composed by Winter Harp Artistic Director Lori Pappajohn in honour of the 30th anniversary. This modern romantic piece is for lever or pedal harp. We hope many of you enter!
Open to BC residents. Participants will receive adjudication comments from the judges.
There will be 2 winners for best overall performance: one from Vancouver Island, another from the BC mainland. The winners will each get to play a carol on stage with Winter Harp in their respective communities. In the event that one of the winners is unable to perform with Winter Harp, a runner up may have the opportunity.
