    The music, myths, and stories of the Celtic Harp

    Old Town Center for the ArtsCottonwood AZ (February 13, 2014) – “Legends of the Celtic Harp” comes to the Old Town Center for the Arts, on February 22, 7:00 PM. The “Legends” concert is a musical journey into the mythical Celtic Harp. Three of the premier Celtic harpers in the world, Patrick Ball, Lisa Lynne and Aryeh Frankfurter, have created a dramatic ensemble that takes you deep into the magic, stories, and fabled history of this most captivating instrument.  

    The trio of Celtic harpers, Ball, Lynne and Frankfurter, hail from Northern California. The unique show they’ve created is a blend of theater, history, poetry and comedy. You will hear three Celtic Harps including the rarely seen wire strung harp, Swedish Nyckelharpa, Cittern and Irish Bouzouki intertwined with moving stories from historic journals, myths and legend. 

    The trio has toured extensively throughout the US to sold out audiences and rave reviews. One recent review states “Legends of the Celtic Harp is a blend of music and oratory, falling somewhere between concert and theater. It spanned nearly the range of human feeling, from humor to tragedy, tenderness to rage, reality to mysticism, and more besides. The effects were powerful and exhilarating.”

    Compassionate Sedona?
    By Tommy Acosta
    Sedona is known throughout the world as a spiritual destination point where the land and those who live upon it march to the beat of a different drummer. Compassion. Love.
