“A Thing of Beauty” Harp Recital - Emily Granger
Location
About
In a time that often feels fast, noisy, and unsettled, A Thing of Beauty is a return to something quieter.
This new ABC Classic album release and tour from Emily Granger, Principal Harpist of the Queensland Symphony Orchestra, brings together music that lingers — works by Australian women composers, alongside new commissions and a series of deeply personal transcriptions. These are pieces that don’t demand attention so much as invite it, unfolding at their own pace.
Threaded through the program are moments of poetry and reflection, offering a glimpse into the ideas and images that shaped the music. The result is an experience that moves between stillness and motion, simplicity and depth — a space to listen, and perhaps to breathe.
