Ronya’s songs and harp music invite you to set sail! Her universe blends composition, Nordic mythology and Celtic traditions…
A musician since her early childhood, Ronya studied flute, guitar and piano. Developing her voice in opera classes, she decided to become a professional singer. At the age of twenty-two, she found in the Celtic harp the perfect instrument to accompany herself. Her first album “Delta” was released digitally, followed by the physical disc “Lyraé” in 2019. Since 2018 she has been working at the Arize music school as a harp, singing and music education teacher.

Next Thursday’s online concert presents Parker Ramsay (USA), one of the most intriguing concert harpists of his generation. A former organ scholar of King’s College, Cambridge, Parker subsequently pursued historical keyboard studies at Oberlin Conservatory, and modern harp in Nancy Allen’s class at The Juilliard School. In 2020, the recording of his harp transcription of Bach’s Goldberg Variations was praised as “remarkably special” (Gramophone), “marked by keen musical intelligence” (The Wall Street Journal) and “a resounding success” (The Independent).
Parker significantly develops new harp repertoire. Projects include a residency at IRCAM in Paris throughout the 2022-3 season, with Latitude 49 to premiere a chamber concerto by Jared Miller, and commissions from Sarah Kirkland Snider, Matthew Ricketts, Alyssa Weinberg, Tom Morrison, Saad Haddad, Aida Shirazi and inti figgis-vizueta.
For our Jeudis de la Harpe, Parker presents nine movements from The Street, a new concert-length work for solo harp by Nico Muhly (Two Boys, Marnie), with texts by Alice Goodman (Nixon in China, Death of Klinghoffer). Parker premiered The Street in Cambridge UK on April 16, 2022, and the recording is also now out on King’s College Records. We are very proud that an Égérie harp was selected for both premier and recording.
Broadcasting from January 26, 19:30 CET @ CamacHarpsOfficial on YouTube. Goodman’s texts accompanying the movements are also available on our English-language programme.
