Rio Harp Festival 2013

From 1 till 31 May 2013 the eighth edition of the RioHarpFestival takes place in Rio de Janeiro. The RioHarpFestival is one of the biggest international harp festivals and the largest series of concerts in Brazil.

Harpists from all over the world give – daily and free - concerts in diverse locations of the city. The harpists play a broad variety of genres, from medieval music to European classics, from romantic to impressionist and from modern to contemporary Brazilian styles.

The RioHarpFestival is presented by the Brazilian Ministry of Culture and organized by Música no Museu (Music in the Museum). Since 1997 Música no Museu realizes free concerts in museums, churches and cultural centres in Rio de Janeiro and other Brazilian cities, often related to a particular exhibition.

Among musicians from more than 26 countries like Brazil, Switzerland, Thailand and Australia, is the harp playing singer-songwriter Habiba Doorenbos from the Netherlands.
