Anne Harper is a musician, storyteller, and researcher whose innovative work explores the meeting point of music, mythology and archaeology.
Combining scholarship with artistry, she brings cultural heritage to life through live music, compelling storytelling, and unique heritage tours.
After many years as a professional orchestral clarinettist, Anne now also performs on the harp and its ancestor, the lyre (cruit). This remarkable instrument, which predates the familiar triangular harp by thousands of years, once accompanied the earliest bardic storytelling traditions.
