Bucharest Harp Festival, Second Edition
Salvi – Lyon & Healy Harps Exhibition
Between 28th – 30th of October 2016 the National University of Music Bucharest and Romanian Harpists Association organizes the Second Bucharest Harp Festival and – in cooperation with Salvi Harps and Lyon & Healy – a Harp Exhibition. Both venues will take place in the National University of Music Bucharest.
The Festival itself will be a harp feast and will gather inland harpists as well as outland ones, to celebrate 125 years of Harp playing in Romania. Although, the main goal of The Festival is to promote the harp within the young generation, hoping that these ones will be more and more attracted by the instrument.
Next to the Romanian soloists we would like to introduce harpists guests from Germany, Greece and Moldova.
We would also like to underline few of the Festival attractions such as:
