Jade uses an electric harp which plugs into an amplifier just like an electric guitar does or an acoustic harp when requested; this gives her real flexibility to play any style of choice, whether classical, folk, rock and pop or eastern and oriental styles. She graduated with a Masters from Goldsmiths College a year ago and recently appeared on BBC 1.
These pieces demonstrate the different styles, which Jade can play on her French made Camac Electroharpe. Her harp has 36 strings and is ornately decorated in green and gold metallic carbon fibre. Jade’s harp creates a unique ambience adding an exotic flavour to the performance. She can also use various electronic effects to add some more theatrical elements, or perhaps to give the effect of playing in a church or large hall, if desired. Almost any effect can be achieved!

Her harp adds a unique accompaniment to that special occasion. Perfect for weddings, cocktail parties, corporate hospitality and other exclusive events, harp music will enchant your guests with its melodious lilting sound whilst remaining soft and unobtrusive. Ornate and portable, the harp is a delightful alternative to more traditional forms of background music. The harp is a versatile instrument and lends itself well to most musical genres. Her extensive repertoire spans light jazz, baroque and classical, folk, show tunes and popular hits.
