Description

Cécile plays Principal harp in the Regina Symphony Orchestra and has also played with the Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra. She received her Masters in Music Performance from the University of Toronto. Her music, whether on celtic or on pedal harp, is both entertaining and relaxing.  She has performed for eminent dignitaries such as Prince Charles and Camilla, Prince Edward and Sophie as well as Canadian Premiers.

Whether in an intimate setting such as a house concert or in a larger venue, Cécile Denis and her electro-acoustic harp can entertain a crowd for a 2 hour length recital.  Cécile's playing has been described as "unique" and "very special" not only in her technique but also in the format she offers her music under.  Indeed, Cécile is able to weave in and out of familiar pieces on the harp thanks to her improvising abilities.  One of Cécile's performance will transport you from the celtic islands, medieval times to her own compositions in a seamless flow of music.
