This collection of harp tunes was inspired by a young harp player Esme Morris Macintyre from Kinnesswood, Scotland. Esme died aged 18 in July 2013 after first being diagnosed with a brain tumour when she was aged only 11. She wrote a searingly honest account of the challenges she faced through her Facebook page and she worked tirelessly to raise funds for the Teenage Cancer Trust.

And now, a selection of performers from the festival have generously donated their time and creativity to create an exclusive collection of music - a compilation made especially for the Edinburgh International Harp Festival with generous support from the Scottish Arts Council.

Contemporary pieces for harp
A showcase of stunning and original new talent from a rising generation of harp students. All the pieces are composed and performed by the nine students pictured overleaf. Together they form a varied and eclectic range of exciting new music for both the pedal harp and clarsach. This album also reflects the recent upsurge of interest in this unusual and versatile instrument and it is hoped that many up-and-coming harpists will be inspired by the beauty and originality of these compositions and wish to play them for themselves.
