The sessions will focus on the works for the Taize community by Jacques Berthier. I invite you to surround yourself with some beauty every Sunday, and have fun in a community of musicians while you're at it!

I'll contacting all the registrants to find out more about instruments and voices but this will work with a very small or a much larger group. I expect to work on pieces in 2 week sessions, so if you miss one, you'll get the 2nd. Come on in!

Celebrate the longest day of the year with a workshop that never ends (OK just kidding) We begin June 21 at 1 pm and continue through to Wednesday 22 evening. You need some experience playing chords on the harp as we'll take a deep dive into the structure and use of chords. All the theory and how to use it. Bring your wits and your harp, a lot of pencils, and a recording device. Bethlehem Centre in Nanaimo is our location. They have reasonable priced accommodation, a swimming beach on the lake nearby, and a good-sized teaching room. You can book a romm (comes with meals), or meals only if you're commuting, or just come! This is a repeat of the workshop held in March, and will also be available by Zoom, though for the best chord building fund, be there in person!

Post a question if you'd like or just register. Class is definitely limited in number.

Sorry - sold out, but there may be another in March - stay tuned! We return to the far west coast of the Island for a 3 day workshop on the topic of making an arrangement. We'll have some exercises, some theory, lots of examples, but much of the time will be spent on one piece you each bring to work on to make your own. Classes will be helped at

But is will be glorious to play together after so long!!!

If the pandemic worsens and we loose access to the hall, or we feel unsafe, we will suspend completely, and I will re-imburse you for any months that we don't rehearse. Please sign up if you're in - and let me know if you are not!

If you are a harp teacher looking for new ideas, or a student or player looking to start teaching - this is your class! Many times students have reached a high level of performance, but "forget" how they got there. Marilyn's ideas are sometimes unique, but always focussed on good technique and excellent musicianship.

Most of the material used will be Marilyn's Harp Start Method book 1, with some supplementary material in addition.

This is a chance to equip yourself for a new career, and have all the materials at hand for your student's first year. There will be at least one assignment given for feedback, and lots of time to ask questions.

All lessons are live on-line, with recordings available for short-term study. If you are on Vancouver Island, it may be possible to attend in the studio - please inquire
