Harp Workshops

To aid composers to learn more about writing for the harp, my extensively researched handout and presentation details the ins and outs of navigating this instrument. I have conducted workshops for the student composers at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, Berklee College of Music and the Boston Conservatory. I have also worked with composers such as Federico Chavez-Blanco to premiere and record their new works.

Here is a link to view the handout

Drop me an email to be included in future edits and news updates!

The Harp Quarterly

The Harp Quarterly aims to be a platform for all harpists in Singapore to gather and make music together. I am not only a founding member of Singapore's premiere harp quartet, but also the arranger of music for THQ.

Notable arrangements premiered include Harry Potter Medley, A Holly Jolly Christmas and La Vie en Rose.
