“[She] dresses like a showgirl, plays the pants off the harp and tells tall tales with the ease of a stand-up comic.” (Cleveland Plain Dealer)
Described as ““A combination of Leonard Bernstein and Xena, Warrior Princess.”” (Boston Globe) and “The Jimi Hendrix of the harp” (Steve Vai), DHC breaks down the 4th wall between audience and stage - and pulls sounds out of the harp that you never thought were possible. Also featuring conductor David Lockington & the Grand Rapids Symphony,
