Mitch & Staci

Congratulations to Mitch & Staci on their marriage! Mitch and Staci were married on Saturday at the Lake Norman Retreat in Sherrills Ford, North Carolina. The wedding ceremony took place outdoors overlooking beautiful Lake Norman. It was a gorgeous day and a beautiful wedding ceremony. The bride chose Prelude in C by Bach for the seating of the mothers and grandmothers; Trumpet Voluntary by Clarke for the entrance of the bridal party; Canon in D by Pachelbel for the entrance of the bride; The Prayer by Sager/Foster for special music during the ceremony; and Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring by Bach for the recessional. Congratulations again to this beautiful couple!

The Prayer
words and music by
Carole Bayer Sager and David Foster

“I pray you’ll be our eyes,
And watch us where we go,
And help us to be wise
In time when we don’t know.
Let this be our prayer,
When we lose our way.
Lead us to a place,
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we’ll be safe."

WELCOME!

Welcome! I am a freelance harpist (i.e. HarpStringStudio) available for professional bookings, including weddings, receptions, special events, church and school performances, and harp presentations for clubs and/or civic groups. I enjoy my career as a professional harpist, performing solo, chamber, and orchestral music for audiences throughout the Southeast. I also teach private harp lessons in Greensboro and Newton, North Carolina. I attended Converse College's Petrie School of Music in Spartanburg, South Carolina, graduating with a Bachelor's degree in music/harp performance. I previously studied music at the North Carolina School of the Arts. I created this blog to share information, videos, sound clips, event schedule, etc with prospective and past clients; future and former audience members; and other folks that would be interested in reading this blog. Thank you for your interest, and HAPPY READING!
