Musicians

Jim Dronenburg
Harper and Vocalist

     First, a note about his harp. You will notice from the pictures that he does not have a concert harp, but rather a Celtic (Irish, Scottish, Welsh, folk) harp, which he normally plays in his lap. Although the harp is smaller than a concert harp, the sound is large and he can “fill” a large space (including out-of-doors) easily.
     Jim's repertoire is eclectic; he has a special interest in British and American folk songs. Jim can play and/or sing things from the period 13th C. on, through Elizabethan, 18th C. English and American, a fair bit of Civil War, and some things from the 1900’s-1930’s. Plus all the usual “classical”instrumental pieces and some show tunes.
      Jim lives in southern Frederick County, MD. His normal travel range extends to all of the Baltimore and the Washington DC metro areas. Jim has worked many times with Lance and their timing is seamless. Lance recommends Jim highly.

     As guest artist with the Washington Philharmonic, Japanese Philharmonic, Washington Choral Society, and the Maryland Opera Theater, Cheryl has performed throughout Europe and the United States. Under the direction of Momo Kadous, she toured Germany as solo harpist with the internationally renowned Arabeska dance theater.
     Drawing on classical and contemporary influences, Cheryl expertly performs her repertoire on an exquisite gold Gothic harp. Its graceful curves and rippling harmonies bring serenity, elegance and romance to any event. The beauty of her music transcends language and cultural barriers as it speaks directly to the heart.
     She has worked with Lance many times with great results. Lance recommends her highly.
