ASTORIA — Legends of the
Celtic Harp will perform its

the Worlds” at 4 p.m. Sunday,
April 24 at the Clatsop Com-
munity College Performing
Arts Center, located at 588
16th St. General admission is
15 the concert is a Eene¿t for

“The Door Between the
Worlds” is a dramatic jour-
ney in music and story into
the realms of the Celtic “Oth-
erworld.” The Celtic people
have always believed there
are two worlds: the world we
live in and “The Otherworld.”
This land of faery is ¿lled with
wonder and delight but also
darkness and peril.
Acclaimed ensemble Leg-
ends of the Celtic Harp opens
the door to this mystical world
with music played on Celtic
harps, Irish bouzouki, cittern
and Swedish nyckelharpa, tell-
ing the tales of that legendary
land — from which no one re-
turns unchanged.
This trio of Celtic harp-
ers features Patrick Ball, Lisa
Lynne and Aryeh Frankfurt-
er, who have toured exten-
sively throughout the U.S. to
sold-out audiences and rave
reviews. One recent review
states, “Legends of the Celtic
Harp is a blend of music and
oratory, falling somewhere
between concert and theater.
It spanned nearly the range of
human feeling, from humor
to tragedy, tenderness to rage,
reality to mysticism, and more
besides. The effects were pow-
erful and exhilarating.”
Ball is an American master
of the Irish harp and a capti-
vating spoken word artist. He
has recorded nine instrumen-
tal and three spoken word al-
bums, which have sold over
a half million copies inter-
nationally, winning national
awards in both the music and
spoken word categories. Ball’s
critically acclaimed concerts
and solo theatrical productions
have toured the United States,
Canada, Ireland and the UK,
and have been awarded grants
by the California Arts Council
and the Circle of Excellence
Award from the National Sto-
rytelling Association.
Lynne is a multi-instru-
mentalist and performer who
has gained worldwide rec-
ognition for her original mu-
sic featuring her Celtic harp.
She is widely acclaimed for
composing memorable and
heartwarming melodies on
the Windham Hill/Sony mu-
sic labels that have repeated-
ly placed in the Top 10 and
Top 20 on the Billboard new
age music charts. Lynne tours
year round performing at large
U.S. festivals and performing
art centers. Her work in ther-
apeutic music has gained rec-
ognition from NBC and CNN

Frankfurter is also a re-
nowned Celtic harper and
world-traveling multi-instru-
mentalist who went from vir-
tuosic progressive rock violin
to intricate Swedish folk and
Celtic music. He began with
classical violin at the age of
3. His early studies and suc-
cesses led him to explore var-
ious ethnic and international
musical genres. Frankfurter
taught himself to play a vari-
ety of instruments bowed and
plucked, including the rarely
seen Swedish nyckelharpa.
His uncommon approach to
the Celtic harp and folk harp
repertoire and his numerous
critically and commercially
successful albums have earned
him credit as a musician, re-
cording and performance artist
of extraordinary talents and
abilities.
