Harps North West

Enjoy live music played by a harp quartet in the study at Allan Bank.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Come and listen to beautiful background music played by members of Harps North West on Lever (also called Clarsach or Celtic) harps. We play an eclectic range of pieces from folk, arranged pop songs, classics and specially written music; some you are sure to recognise. We are very happy to chat about the harps, show them off or even let you have a go!

These informal pop-up performances will take place in the Wordsworth Study at various points between 11am and 1pm.
