Leslie McMichael

Based in Vashon WA

Establish a warm atmosphere for your event with live harp music performed by Northwest harpist Leslie McMichael. Few other instruments can transform an occasion from everyday to extraordinary with just the pluck of a string. Leslie's wide repertoire on her resonant concert harp gives listeners well-known classical works such as Pachelbel's Canon, familiar standards like Moon River and Over the Rainbow, rhythmic Latin tunes (care to tango?), and Celtic melodies like Danny Boy and Greensleeves. One of Leslie's songs was recently chosen for inclusion on KING FM's CD "A Northwest Classical Christmas."

A graduate of Wellesley College, Leslie's musical pursuits include performance, teaching, recording, and composition. She has toured the U.S., is currently on the juried 4Culture Arts Roster and Northwest on Tour, and is on the faculty of Music Center of the Northwest.

Leslie is delighted to work with you to create a memorable musical backdrop for your special festivities. An experienced professional, she arrives early with a smile, is flexible and easy to work with and is happy to consider musical requests (but draws the line at Flight of the Bumblebee –sorry!)
