END OF A CHAPTER 👑 2019-2024
This week marks the end of a very special chapter for me, working for @theroyalfamily 👑
I will always look back on the past 5 years fondly, and I am incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity and privilege of being the Royal Harpist during this time. I have had some unforgettable experiences, and have met some incredible people - it’s been such an honour to be the caretaker of this wonderful brooch during my time in this unique position!
I also want to take the opportunity to publicly thank Salvi Harps @salviharpsofficial@salvilondon for their support during my time in post, and will miss getting to play the gorgeous Royal Harp whilst on duty!
Finally, I am so thrilled to be able to congratulate my friend and colleague @maredemyrharpist who has been appointed as my successor, and wish her all the best for her tenure as His Majesty The King’s Harpist. She is a fantastic musician and I’m sure she will be a great ambassador for our instrument 🎶

Coronation 👑 ✅
Such a privilege to join the amazing musicians of the Coronation Orchestra in @westminsterabbeylondon earlier today! Grateful for the opportunity 🥰
For #DyingMattersWeek 2026, we’re asking:
How does involving hospice communities in the creative act reshape what a good death can look like?
Today we’re hearing from Alis, @classicfm 30 under 30, @deccaclassics recording artist and a Music in Hospices musician, on the power of music in palliative care during a session at Community Hospice, Greenwich.

Alis Huws - Greensleves
This new single is brand-new harp arrangement by Alis of the popular English folk song that takes you on a journey of unrequited love 💘
Thank you for all the birthday messages yesterday! I’m so lucky to be tutoring on @nco_gb this week, and got a lovely rendition of Happy Birthday from the whole orchestra 🥰
Here I am with my new favourite hat, made by the harp section! 🐸
