🎼 Elegant Live Harp & Piano Music for Your Special Event

Live Music for Weddings, Events & Special Occasions

Live music transforms an ordinary space into an unforgettable experience. With over 30 years of professional performance experience, I provide elegant piano and harp music tailored to the atmosphere of your event.

Currently booking performances in Maryland and the Orlando, Florida area (including special availability for the holiday season).

The Instruments & Sound

Harpist Lydia Bandy Orlando Baltimore Maryland

Every venue is unique, and I bring the right instrumentation to match your space:

  • Piano: From grand venue pianos to high-quality portable keyboards, perfect for everything from classical ambiance to modern pop covers.
  • Lever Harp: I perform on a beautiful 34-string Dusty Strings lever harp in Maryland and a beautifu Aoyama Japanese level harp in Orlando as well as a portal electric harp called a Harp-E perfect for strolling and smaller venues. It is equipped with a professional electric pickup and amplification system, allowing the delicate acoustic sound to easily fill larger event spaces or outdoor venues without losing its warmth.
