Lily Neill

An eclectic program from acclaimed globe-trotting harpist
About this Event
Put aside everything you ever thought you knew about the harp and open your ears to the wealth of sound that two hands and thirty strings can conjure! With a signature repertoire of original compositions, alongside an eclectic mix of ragtime, traditional music, tangos, and early music, Lily Neill’s innovative flair is thrilling.
Lily Neill has captivated audiences around the world—from Toronto to Tatarstan—with the dynamism and breadth of her performances, and her infectious passion for the harp. Her versatility and command as a solo performer has seen her amass an impressive number of awards, and recognition from everyone from presidents and world leaders, to legendary Irish band, “The Chieftains”.
Neill’s maverick approach has earned her praise, with Irish Music Magazine calling her, “…part of the new Harp revolution extolling aspects of harp music never previously heard”. The Washington Times hailed Lily’s collaborative work a "tour-de-force" and fRoots has written glowingly of her "superb" playing.
“Without Words”, Neill’s debut album, was given a pre-nomination nod by the U.S. GRAMMY committee and was followed by “The Habit of a Foreign Sky”. Her latest album, “Tales and Golden Histories”, with Vesa Norilo, was hailed, “…a glittering, riveting and epic symphony” by At the Barrier and was included in their Best of 2023 list.
Come hear a truly one-of-a-kind performance, “boundless in its possibility and contagious in its energy and passion” (IMM).
