The Pinedale Fine Arts Council is proud to present critically acclaimed harpist Maeve Gilchrist live at the Sheppard Auditorium on Saturday February 15 at 7:00 p.m.
Described by one critic as “a phenomenal harp player who can make her instrument ring with unparalleled purity”, Maeve Gilchrist has taken the Celtic (lever) harp to new levels of performance and visibility.
Born and raised in Edinburgh, Scotland, and currently based in New York, Maeve‘s innovative approach to her instrument stretches its harmonic limits and improvisational possibilities. She is as at home as a soloist with an internationally renowned orchestra as she is playing with a traditional Irish folk group or using electronic augmentation in a more contemporary, improvisatory setting.
For the Pinedale concert, Maeve will be performing as a duo (harp, guitar) and the program will be based around her Harpweaver Album. The performance will also include some brand new music that Maeve is workshopping in anticipation of her next record. The program is primarily instrumental but includes a few songs and also spoken word (as well as samples of the voice of Edna St Vincent Millay, the poet who inspired the Harpweaver album with her Pulitzer-award-winning poem, The Ballad of the Harpweaver').
Tickets for the February 15 performance are on sale now at local PFAC outlets (Office Outlets, Nested West & The Cowboy Shop) and online at pinedalefinearts.com.
