We are pleased to welcome harpist Amelia Romano to the salon of 1462 Willard Street. A concertizing lever harpist, programming classical re-imaginations alongside original works, Amelia received her master’s in classical lever harp performance at San Francisco State University under the tutelage of Karen Gottlieb - retired second harpist of the San Francisco Symphony.

Her latest album, “Levers Engaged: Classical Works Re-imaged for Harp,'' and sheet music collection, “Classical Re-imaginations," present the instrument as a valid voice in classical music. A composer, arranger and trailblazer in the lever harp world, she is equally at home writing Latin America inspired works for solo harp as she is adapting classical pieces for chamber collaborations. Amelia will be joined by Violinist, Basma Edrees and Cellist, Kendra Grittani.

What's the music?

The compositions presented were originally written for the lever harp, the primary instrument of the composers featured on this program. Arranged for lever harp, violin and cello, these works present the lever harp as a cross-genre voice in classic, contemporary, jazz, and folk settings, showcasing its versatility and vibrancy.
