HELLO HARP | Rachel Hair
Acclaimed Scottish harpist Rachel Hair returns with HELLO HARP, her eighth album and her first entirely solo harp recording in almost 20 years!
A joyful celebration of the Scottish harp (clarsach), HELLO HARP brings together traditional tunes from Scotland, Ireland, the Isle of Man and beyond, alongside Rachel’s own compositions and arrangements.
From driving reels and joyful jigs to snappy strathspeys and beautiful, reflective airs, the album is bursting with energy, warmth and a little musical mischief. With her trademark rhythmic drive, inventive arrangements and unmistakable Highland style, Rachel showcases the wonderful versatility of the Scottish harp.
Originally from Ullapool in the Scottish Highlands, Rachel has spent over two decades performing and teaching internationally, earning a reputation as one of Scotland’s leading contemporary harpists and tunesmiths.
Recorded entirely on solo harp, HELLO HARP is a celebration of the instrument Rachel loves and the music that has shaped her life.
Just Rachel and her harp. No frills, no fuss… just darn good tunes!
