When you buy a harp, you buy a friend for life! It's always fantastic to know the people that created your best friend; their names, what they do and what they look like! You can meet our team here, ready for when you meet us in person and join the Pilgrim Harps family. Whether it is an enquiry, inspiration or just being nosey its always nice to know who is on the other end of the line.

Faye MacintyreAssistant to the Sales Director Faye came along to a "come and try" the harp event on the Isle of Wight in 2016. She had never played the harp before but took a leap of faith and started her harp journey. 7 years on, she now attends the "come and try" events to pass on the joy of the harp to others. |
Peter Cunningham
(1947 to 2016)
Director/Founder Member Peter began making harps in 1973 . Although Peter passed away in November 2016, his influence to everything we have and are still making is so immense we wish to still include him here. Peter was always self-effacing and never happier than when creating harps in the workshop. His ability to get the very best out of each piece of wood was second to none and in our workshop he was celebrated for the way he worked with enormous accuracy and dexterity. He had an incredible understanding of harps and when restoring an antique instrument could always be relied upon to find the very best solution to any problem. However, above all we will always think of him as a true friend and hugely talented craftsman. |
