With over 30 years experience and over 1,000 wedding/reception performances, Rebecca works to provide each client with an elegant, refined and sophisticated musical atmosphere for each and every wedding/reception. Rebecca performs on a Lyon & Healy Concert Grand Harp which produces a full, warm, rich sound appropriate for both large cathedral weddings and small intimate ceremonies. Weather permitting, Rebecca will perform for outdoor weddings as well.

On a regular basis, Rebecca performs with Grammy-nominated Flutist Karen Kevra. The combination of flute and harp is truly exquisite and will provide a beautiful ambiance for any special occasion. Excerpts of the flute and harp repertoire can be heard on the Audio page.  Please keep in mind that most of the harp solos listed on both the wedding and audio pages can also be performed by flute and harp duo.
