 Beautiful Music performed by Geraldine McMahon on her Gold & Maple Harp. Perfect for ceremony music at weddings or just adding ambience to a drinks reception.

 

Geraldine has worked as a professional harpist and singer for more than 20 years. She originally studied at the Royal College of Music where she won several prizes including a scholarship for study at the “Mozarteum” in Salzburg. Her career has taken her around the world. She spent two years in Ireland where, as well as performing at Bunratty Castle, she was entered for the “Rose of Tralee” Competition! She then spent several years in merica,  living in Chicago, New York and Connecticut performing in concerts and appearing on national television and radio shows. After working for six months in Bermuda she returned to Britain Geraldine has held residencies at West-End Hotels including the “Savoy” and has played at many castles and historic buildings throughout England and Ireland. These include Dromoland Castle and Knappogue Castle in Ireland, Leeds Castle, Kent, Highclere Castle, St. George’s Chapel, Windsor, Saltram House, Southwark Cathedral and St. Albans Abbey.

Her concert programmes include solo harp pieces and songs accompanied with the harp. As well as concerts and recitals she plays for Weddings, Corporate and Business functions, Christenings, Anniversary Celebrations, Birthdays and Funerals. For Weddings she performs classical music, folk tunes and arrangements of popular songs and show tunes. (And yes, she can even play “Stairway to Heaven”!) With her lovely Soprano voice she can perform such favourites as “Ave Maria” or “On Wings of Song”, during the Signing of the Register accompanied by the harp or play classics such as “Canon in D” by Pachabel as a harp solo. Whatever the function, Geraldine is happy to adapt her repertoire to suit the occasion and the wishes of the client.

The superb Lyon and Healy gold and maple harp, which she currently uses, will add a memorable touch of elegance and sophistication to any special occasion.
