Harp music by VJ and Guinevere !
The sweetest sounds....
Harp music has been around for thousands of years. King David wooed and won Bathsheba with his kinnor, a small harp. From the Greek muses to the Irish folksingers, the sound of harps inevitably suggests dreamy, relaxing, angelic sounds.
Harp music enhances any occasion! Be it a wedding, a dinner party, a corporate reception, a memorial service, or healing music for health, the harp's lovely music creates an atmosphere of calm and pleasant elegance.
Nonetheless, the harp is famous for being not only the most expensive (some can cost as much as a house) but also the most difficult of all instruments! It's one of the reasons they are so rare.
Guinevere is owned and played by Valerie-Jean (VJ) Hume, a professional musician and entertainer for many years. To find out about her, please go to: www.MySpace.com/vjhume or http://www.vjhume.freeservers.com. As a special touch, VJ can coordinate her gown to your color theme for any event!

Guinevere's Music....
Guinevere's music is a combination of popular, classical, and folk songs.
Guinevere has been delighting music-lovers for years...
Guinevere was created in Minnesota, but when VJ found her, Guinevere's true home became Palm Springs, California. Guinevere belongs to the "Celtic" harp family, and is a "lever" harp. Her special tone is the result of her different combinations of wood. Harps grow more seasoned as they age, and Guinevere's bright, mellow tone has become her very personal sound.
