About

Elizabeth Louise began studying music at age six and took up the harp at nine under Elizabeth Motter, former harpist with the Cincinnati Symphony. Her early training was shaped by summer studies at prestigious programs in the United States and abroad, including Benslow Music Trust in England and Indiana University's summer harp course with Susann McDonald.

At fourteen, Elizabeth was accepted into Interlochen Arts Academy, the renowned boarding arts high school in northern Michigan, where she studied with Joan Raeburn Holland for four years. She went on to earn her Bachelor of Music in harp performance from Webster University in St. Louis under Ayako Watanabe, former harpist of the St. Louis Symphony. In 2016, she completed her Master of Arts in harp performance at the University of Central Florida, studying with Rosalind Beck, former principal harpist of the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra.

For nearly twenty years, Elizabeth has served as the resident harpist at Victoria & Albert’s, the AAA Five Diamond restaurant at Walt Disney World in Orlando — one of the most celebrated fine dining experiences in the country. Her work at Walt Disney World has also included performances with the Disney World Orchestra and the Candlelight Processional at EPCOT. Beyond Disney, she has toured the United States as harpist for Norwegian singer/songwriter Sissel Kyrkjebø and performs regularly for weddings, private receptions, and other elegant occasions.

With more than three decades of playing experience and a catalog of over 150 original harp arrangements, Elizabeth has increasingly turned her focus toward recording. She is actively releasing new albums and singles spanning ambient, classical, and popular repertoire, bringing her signature sound to listeners well beyond the concert hall. She also maintains a private teaching practice, mentoring aspiring young harpists and pianists.
