This special event transports the audience on a musical journey through centuries, following the harp's evolution from ancient traditions to modern styles. The artist blends repertoire with storytelling, sharing excerpts from a variety of genres and offering her vision of the intricacies and artistry of harp performance.

She assisted in the discovery of the decorated French concert harp owned by General Mariano Vallejo's son currently on display at the Vallejo Home. You are invited to enjoy the heavenly sounds of her golden harp!
