"Chelsea is not only an excellent harpist, but also a wonderful harp teacher for my daughter. She is always excited to help pass on her skills, showing my daughter not just traditional wedding or folk music, but also songs that reflect the great diversity of harp music, keeping the lessons interesting. I also appreciate Chelsea’s relaxed, encouraging teaching style using praise rather than criticism to help my daughter learn as well as the “real-world” playing opportunities she arranges." -Richael M

"Chelsea has been the most wonderful guide in my journey to master the harp. I have had the good fortune of Chelsea being my harp mentor for the past 12 months. In that time, I have progressed more than I could have hoped for, because of her ability to not only guide me, but to motivate me. She intuitively meets my needs at each stage of my progression. I have no doubt that Chelsea will help me become the harpist I want to be. What a great feeling!" -Paula - age 52.
