As Christmas approaches, you might be wondering what to gift the harpist in your life – and, here at Camac we’re great believers in presents to oneself, as well. An excellent option is always a new harp<\/a> – but if that would be stretching it<\/em> a bit, here’s a round-up of other things we’re writing on our lists to Santa.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Sonderverkauf<\/a>Until December 22nd, Camac Harps Germany has 50 – 70% off<\/a> ALL sheet music in the Berlin store! Hurry, hurry, while stocks last…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Veronika Lemishenko<\/a> has released her solo CD<\/a>. This classic programme of Reni\u00e9, Durand, Debussy, Parish-Alvars and Dussek would be a great present for all lovers of the solo literature – and particularly all those who are learning all these pieces for the big competitions.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Veronika and Chantal Mathieu will also soon release a disc of works by Jean-Michel Damase, a follow-up to their fantastic tribute concert<\/a> at the World Harp Congress in Hong Kong. We have recently updated our online boutique stock and now have Chantal’s complete discography<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The creation<\/a> of our E C Llanera<\/a> in collaboration with Edmar Castaneda, and subsequently the Electro Llanera<\/a> and the Electro Paraguayan<\/a>, has opened our eyes to the truly incredible world(s) of the \u00a0Latin American harp. Mauricio Carvajal<\/a> is another Llanera artist with an interesting album, Mirando Al Cielo. This combines traditional Colombian, pop and techno elements.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Paris'Click\"<\/a>For something completely different, Paris’Click<\/a> have released their second album, Assassine Logique<\/a>. More rock and more symphonic than their first album\u00a0Reset<\/a>, ‘Assassine Logique’ also features no sound processing at all. “We wanted to keep the sounds of the instruments as they are”, Paris’Click harpist Oph\u00e9lia Grimm explains. “We’re using cello orchestras, a lot of bass, across a wide range of tracks which together form a real exploration of music and counter-culture.”<\/p>\n

On the other hand, a very creative example of electric harps and sound processing can be found in Avallon<\/a>, a second album from Aur\u00e9lie Barb\u00e9. Created together with Beno\u00eet Rocco (electric vibraphone, percussion and processing), Avallon is an ambient disc with intriguing pop, traditional and contemporary influences.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Looking for a new tuner? The Camac team all love this one<\/a>, new in stock from Eagletone. Get it with a pickup that works<\/a> and never end up tuning-embarrassed again. Tuning electro harps? You’ll also need a good jack cable, like this one<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Going in for the Concours Fran\u00e7ais de la Harpe, which will take place from 16 – 18th February, 2018? All the set works are available in a special category<\/a> on our online boutique.\u00a0<\/p>\n
