"Almost two years later, I still receive glowing compliments on your performance from those who attended my mother's funeral. Your carefully chosen selections created a comforting and uplifting ambience very fitting to such a sombre occasion. Thank you for making the occasion truly memorable.
~ Valerie Setz

"We hired Jan Pearce as the harpist for our wedding. The aliveness of the harp vs recorded music was so much more beautiful and it made me much more emotional walking down the isle than anything I could have pumped out on speakers. I certainly would recommend Jan if you are looking for a harpist or for an elegant way to bring music into a wedding."
~ Bride: Cory B.

With Jan's most recent, 2017 achievement of a Masters Degree in Fine Arts, the timing couldn't have been more divine.
Jan's graduation ceremony took place on the exact day of her birthday.
As she stepped up to claim her degree, she represented the limitless capabilities we all can achieve when we are committed to lifelong excellence.


Jan's Harps
The Concert Harp is the most requested for events. It is the large and magnificent “classical” harp with pedals that you see in orchestras and are produced in factories because of their mechanical complexity.
Jan's beautiful French harp features ornate carvings, gold features, fancy wood, and an exceptional “voice”. This type of harp allows a greater repertoire and can deliver delicate to very full-bodied sounds.
Celtic Harps come in different sizes and are usually handmade. While they have a sweeter, less sonorous sound than the concert harp due to size difference, the sound carries very well when played with trained fingers. Often people with a connection to the British Isles will choose this style of harp. It is also ideal for outdoor events such as alpine meadows that are difficult to navigate.
Jan uses her small therapy harp in her Music Therapy practice. Its portability allows for easier manoeuvering in situations such as bedside use, while the quality of the instrument produces a beautiful sound and allows a large repertoire.


Dedication
To Isabella, my preschool teacher:
I am eternally grateful for you and your insistence that my mother enroll me in music lessons. You directed the course of my life. Your encouragement and lifelong friendship will remain in my heart.
