An Audience with Wendy Stewart

Wendy started her harping career way back in the sedate (definitely not swinging) 60s in Edinburgh and has woven her own unique path through the burgeoning revival of both the harp and the traditional music scene since then. As performer, teacher, sessioner, busker and composer, the harp has been her constant companion.
