Harp Therapy

For many centuries, the harp has been associated with the celestial and divine... It is a powerful instrument whose vibrations help to heal, bring harmony, relaxation and inner peace. Harp Therapy is an invitation to relax and find tranquility in our fast-moving world. The soothing music of the pedal and lap harp, the violin and the cello are intertwined with the sounds of nature and the Puerto Rican ocean, making this compact disc a truly unique therapeutic delight. This recording has a perfect blend of classical music written by well- known composers, Celtic music, and beautiful new compositions especially written for the harp. Whether you use my compact disc to enhance or assist in meditation, healing, Yoga, the therapeutic arts of massage or simply to enjoy a soothing and peaceful atmosphere, I hope that you will begin to unwind and feel a sense of calm spread through your mind, body and soul.
