As a harpist studying at NEC you have chosen to work with the principal harpist for the Boston Symphony Orchestra, who also has a broad range of experience as a soloist with many American orchestras.

At the core of your studies is studio instruction. Your studio work is put into practice with performance opportunities in studio class, recitals, chamber music, and orchestra ensembles. Course work in music history and theory gives depth and understanding to your performance repertoire. The liberal arts curriculum is an opportunity to study major academic disciplines as well as cultural, social, intellectual, and political contexts for music.
