Hi, I’m Ruth, a Welsh Harpist from Bridgend, South Wales.

Planning a Wedding, Party, Anniversary or a special occasion?

Add that extra special touch with an experienced harpist at your event…

My name is Ruth Elen Hicks and I am based in Bridgend, South Wales. I have been playing the harp for over 20 years. I have a wide and varied repertoire  ranging from the Classics to the Contemporary, as well as traditional Welsh Aires. I continually strive to add to my repertoire and keep it as contemporary as possible by learning new songs that are often in the charts whilst not forgetting the importance of adding some good old classics.

 

Playing the harp is a passion of mine which started around the age of 9. I enjoy playing at all ocassions but I especially enjoy weddings. I love everything about them from seeing the Groom casting his eyes on the Bride for the first time to seeing the fantastic and awe-inspiring cakes. Every wedding is unique and special and the harp can add an extra touch of class to the day.

 

My Harp

 

My harp is a full-size concert harp with an extended soundboard and pedals. An extended soundboard is considered a must for performing as it enhances the rich tones of the harp. I have also invested in accoustic amplification. This ensures that the gorgoeus sound of the harp does not get drowned out during those special occasions.

 

So, why not add that extra special touch to your Big Day with South Wales Harpist Ruth Elen Hicks?
