Theatrical Entertainment in New York
Available for bookings in New York through Elan Artists, Earth Harp Entertainment is a collective of musicians led by artist William Close, who was featured on America’s Got Talent. The Earth Harp is a string instrument that is rigged to the surrounding architecture and environment with strings that can extend to as many as 1,000 feet. The performer plays the musical instrument-installation combination by running his or her hands along the strings to create cello-like tones. Accompanied by percussion and other instruments, performances can range from ambient and trance-like to theatrical and energetic.
