Lavinia Meijer (harp)About
Besides performing the standard harp repertoire, Lavinia Meijer is very keen on playing modern music. She is also interested in experiments with electronic music, theatrical performances and jazz. She has inspired several composers to write new compositions for the harp, in all possible combinations - including a saxophone quartet and even a rock band.
‘Visions’ presents a varied picture of recent repertoire from the last forty years and includes Britten’s haunting Suite, and Paul Patterson’s incredible pictorial pieces “Spiders” and “Bugs”. Lavinia Meijer’s performance of Garret Byrnes’ “Visions of Twilight” will surely become the benchmark recording of a work which has become one of the most performed works for harp ever since its premier in 2000.
The first CD Lavinia Meijer made for Channel Classics, “Divertissements”, got some raving reviews…
“If you have room in your collection for only a single solo harp recital, then let it be this disc” - Classics Today 10/10
“A bewitching recital from first note to last.” - Gramophone
