| Dear Friends,• What is Carolyn Up To: Back at the Queen Mary! • Feature Article: 5 Reasons to Have Live Music at Your Event • Carolyn Recommends: Time for a Massage - Visit this great Pasadena spot!
Hello Everyone! I have some great news this month! As many of you know, I've been playing select Sundays at the Queen Mary for their brunch - and I'm excited to announce that I'll be back again not only next week on June 27th, but also July 11th, 18th, and 25th! The Queen Mary is a beautiful destination for Sunday morning - the ship is docked in the Long Beach harbor where it has been enjoyed as a museum, hotel, and restaurant since 1971! Check it out at www.queenmary.com - and come see me on Sunday!
Why The Harp? Top 5 Reasons to Have Live Harp Music at Your Event! • Unique The harp is a unique instrument in that it can create an atmosphere of elegance and beauty, while at the same time being unobtrusive and overpowering. It can set the tone of your event while simultaneously providing space and flexiblity for the elements of your event to occur easily. The harp is a very versatile instrument with the same range as the piano. A well trained, professional harpist can play many styles of music ranging from classical, to jazz, popular, folk, celtic, latin, broadway, film, Beatles and classic rock and 40s and 50s. The music can be tailored specifically to your event.• Flexible The harp is an appropriate instrument to accompany very small and intimate gatherings, like a dinner for two, or more, all the way up to large corporate events of several hundred guests. • Beautiful The presence of the harp provides a stunning visual at each and every event - its unique and classic beauty is a breathtaking addition to any setting, making each event even more memorable. The character of the instrument embodies grace and style. •Timeless Being one of the oldest instruments, the character of the harp embodies grace, style and a timelessness that provides a gorgeous backdrop and sets a beautifully elegant tone for each event. Australian harpist Carolyn Sykes has been performing in Australia, Asia, Europe and the United States for the past 30 years. She came to Los Angeles fifteen years ago to study for her Masters Degree at the California Institute of the Arts. Since then she has established her private teaching and performing studio Pacific Harps, teaching, supplying harps and performing in orchestras, on concert stages and for special events, both locally and abroad. Carolyn plays solo, as well as with other instruments such as flute, bass, violin and string ensembles and vocalists. Visit Carolyn's website at www.pacificharps.com for music samples, info on lessons and harps, her harp retreat in Mexico, and much more!
