HarpSpirit: About Harpist

Greetings to you,

I am heartened to have you visit to explore the wondrous world of the harp. Since 1996, as founding director of the ACCHORD Music Access Project, I have offered harp therapy in cancer centers, hospitals and at the bedside of hospice patients. My background in social work and music teaching led me to offer harp lessons from the heart.

Recognizing the therapeutic effects of this instrument for the harper as well as the listener, I became dedicated to introducing the harp to many individuals like yourself, looking for a way to offer your compassion to others or simply experience the therapeutic and calming effects of this magical instrument. The harp becomes an extension of yourself, playing straight from your heart.

I guide you in developing a relationship with your harp based on your personal interests and goals. You are unique and so is each online session.

I look forward to hearing about your passions and harp dreams.

Namaste, Christine

Christine Grace Magnussen - HEART LESSONS FROM THE HARP

Have you ever said, "I've ALWAYS wanted to play the harp!" or "I've raised my family and served others all these years -- not it's MY turn to do something for ME, to express who I am!"  The majority of Christine's students are women between the ages of 45-60 who are absolutely new to an instrument. The harp is an excellent place to begin your musical experience at ANY AGE!

LEARN TO PLAY THE HARP - (Take a look at the Harp Photos Page!) Discover your right-brain, your unique gifts and expressive spirit, and the magical qualities of the harp. Soar past physical or emotional challenges.
One student remarked when she ordered her harp from me, "Just the whole thought of starting to play is therapy!!!"

Affordable, small quality harps are available for rent to local students or purchase worldwide. See Online Harp Lesson page for LIVE interactive lessons via Skype with any sized Celtic/folk harp.
