THE Arts Society Henley’s next lecture is at Henley Rugby Club on June 19 at 10.45am and 2.15pm.
Sarah Deere-Jones will talk on “Soft angelic whispers: The hidden history of the medieval harp”.
Many people believe the harp to be an exclusively “Celtic” instrument and are unaware of its considerable presence in England since the 10th century.
Sarah will reveal the history of the instrument using references to literature and household accounts of the time and by performing music from medieval England using her reproduction medieval harps.
