AWAY FOR A WHILE
An Afternoon of Strings and Strudel with Austrian Harpist and Composer
MONIKA STADLER
Generously supported by the Austrian Cultural Forum London
“Internationally-recognized harpist Monika Stadler brings a breath of fresh air and new dimensions to the world of harp music with her compositions, in which she combines elements of jazz, classical, world, folk and improvisational music to form her very own personal musical signature.”
Monika Stadler is one of the most creative and unique solo harpists in Europe. She studied classical harp at the Vienna University of Music (diploma with highest honours), and jazz harp with Deborah Henson-Conant, in the USA, where she won several awards at international jazz harp competitions. After engagements with the Vienna Symphony Orchestra, she now only performs as a soloist, or in duet or trio formations, exclusively playing her own projects. Apart from her intensive schedule performing throughout Europe, USA and Japan, she also teaches many jazz & improvisation workshops for harpists worldwide, including her work as Jazz Harp Professor here at the Guildhall School.
She has released 9 CDs as well as several music books available from Ceighton's Collection.

“My music is very personal, drawn from being connected with nature, from the rhythms of life, from the experience of inner moods, of the environment, and of silence.”
