Quel Che L'arpa Dice

"I literally embraced the harp at the age of eleven after studying piano. I had been nurtured on music since I was born, for in my family music reigned supreme. It was a choice dictated by circumstances but intrinsically natural, as the piano and the harp have certain characteristics in common. This album, therefore, tells my tale as a harpist, beginning with a comparison of the most well-known composers, from whence it's fair to say I then followed other paths, although remaining very attached to the extraordinary and expressive virtuoso lessons that they embody." (Simona Marchesi) Simona Marchesi is a passionate and diverse artist who is particularly interested in developing the next generation of harpists. In addition to teaching, she performs both as a soloist and alongside prestigious international ensembles.
