LILY NEILL is an internationally renowned harpist who has enthralled audiences around the world with her original compositions and the Irish jigs and reels, Finnish tangos and Lithuanian dances that she has collected on her travels. Her leftfield blend of classical training and interest in celtic folk roots is currently redefining what the audience can expect from the harp.
“… musical and artistic freedom which is boundless in its possibility and contagious in its energy and passion. Part of the new Harp revolution extolling aspects of harp music never previously heard” Irish Music Magazine
She began her career as a child and in her teens performed for the likes of US President Bill Clinton and alongside Irish super-group, The Chieftains. Lily holds a 1st Class Honours degree in Irish Music and Dance from the Irish World Academy at the University of Limerick, Ireland, and a Master of Music degree from the prestigious Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, Finland.
Upon the release of her first CD, \"Without Words,\" Irish Music Magazine enthusiastically crowned Lily part of the \"New Harp Revolution\" and she is living up to that, bringing the harp\'s multi-faceted personality to audiences with her dynamic kaleidoscope of music.
“…staggering beauty that melts your heart” The Irish American News
Lily’s performances reflect her passion for music, from the eerily beautiful to the
exuberantly playful. This passion draws listeners into a vivid, efflorescent soundscape. This is harp like you’ve never experienced it!
A rare opportunity to see Lily performing a solo concert in London. Not to be missed!
