Aoyama Etude 47 -- Pavane and Variations (Antonio de Cabezon)

David Watkins plays - Pavane and Variations (Antonio de Cabezon) on an Aoyama Etude 47 pedal harp. Recorded at Clive Morley Harps in March 2007.

Internationally known harpist, David Watkins, is the Curator of the Clive Morley Collection of Harp Music and Antique Harps. Thanks to David's expertise and ongoing research, the collection is proving to be a valuable resource to anyone studying the harp.
David Watkins was harpist of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden and played for the great artists like Maria Callas, Joan Sutherland, Margot Fonteyn and Rudolf Nureyev. He was a founder member of the New Welsh National Opera Orchestra under James Lockhart and has performed his own harp concerto with the London Philharmonic at the Royal Festival Hall. He is Professor of Harp at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama and his lecture recitals are celebrated in many Countries.

This extended soundboard, 47 string harp is for students whose growing concert or orchestral experience demands a full compass, extended soundboard harp - yet for whom affordability is still a priority.
