Fiona Hosford
'A gifted and experienced harpist, Fiona is based in the South East of England but her work takes her throughout the UK and abroad.
She performs at a huge range of functions - weddings, corporate events, car launches and other social and private events have all been entertained by Fiona and her Harp.
Specialising in "playing outside the Harpbox of tunes" - Fiona is well known for putting the extra effort into making sure that a client's taste in music is adhered to. Her repertoire is vast and ranges from recognisable Classical pieces (ie: from films and adverts), Jazz standards (such as Gershwin, Carmichael, Porter and Kern) through to more contemporary pieces - Coldplay, Sting, Elton John, Norah Jones, Massive Attack, Radiohead, Guns n Roses and many more!
Having studied the piano, violin and singing, she settled on the Harp at 6 years old, and it soon became apparent that the other instruments were secondary to her interest in the Harp.
Over the years she has gained extensive experience performing throughout the UK and abroad, including residencies in Cyprus and aboard cruise ships.
Her varied repertoire has delighted a wide range of clients and her soothing and uplifting music played on her Harp has added an air of refinement and relaxation.
Fiona also performs for a number of talks and afternoon teas in her local area for a wide genre of clientele and also is a supporter of the Macmillan Cancer Charity and performs for fundraising Concerts on their behalf.
Affectionately described as the most friendly, 'normal' Harpist about, Fiona is blessed with a strong sense of humour and a personality to match. With this coupled up and a sympathetic musical ear, this ensures that the client is given a first class musical service with regards to their special occasion.
Her professionalism is evident throughout her attitude to playing and providing a first class service for each event.
Whether it be playing for your Ceremony, Drinks Reception, Wedding Breakfast or the 'Whole Day' option, Fiona prides herself on providing a personal and friendly service.
(Amplification is also available with her Harp, which then gives the Harp an extra boost of musical power over any noise - this is particularly good for over 120 guests!)
So - you've chosen the date and venue, what could be more atmospheric and romantic than having a Harpist to entertain you and your guests?
A harp provides a fantastic romantic atmosphere and also makes a great focal point as well amongst guests.
Once booked for an event, Fiona suggests to then have a chat about any musical preferences that the client may have, or she can suggest items to listen to. Classic FM and borrowing CDs from your local library are a good cost effective idea, as buying wedding CDs can be expensive and not all pieces are suitable to play on the Harp!
She offers Skype consultations and also invites clients to hear her her play at her house (by appointment only).
On Fiona’s website, you will find a plethora of information, including video clips, sound bytes, Hotels that use her as a preferred supplier, reviews from Clients an enquiry form and much more – she’s more than happy to help.

Amy Turk

Surrey
Amy Turk began her harp studies aged seven with Ann Hughes-Chamberlain, a former pupil of the legendary Lily Laskine, and completed a masters degree under the tutorship of Karen Vaughan at the Royal Academy of Music.

Amy grew up with a love of a wide variety of music thanks to her parent's record collection, and could be found listening to Grieg or Rachmaninoff as readily as Genesis, Led Zeppelin or Dire Straits. In her teens she became enthralled by transcription, arranging, composition and music technology, and spent much time performing and recording with her brother, drummer/guitarist Ben Turk, in various projects including power metal band Sorcerer’s Spell, and their own duo project Ben & Amy, under which they released two surrealist pop albums, Science (2007) and The New Food To Eat (2009).
​
Having consolidated her skills at the Academy, Amy now arranges pop, rock, film and video game music for the harp, and explores her fascination of guitar based music by writing percussive contemporary acoustic solo harp works in the style of modern acoustic guitar icons such as Andy McKee and Jon Gomm. Her work is available to view on YouTube
