 50 Years of Doing What We Love

Let the beauty of what you love be what you do. - Rumi

It turns out there’s a reason fiftieth anniversaries are called “golden.” It’s because they are. These past fifty years are, for us, bathed in golden memory and luminous joy. That we have been able to make this journey with the most wonderful customers imaginable and working with an irreverent, talented, dedicated team has made every step of the way precious to us.

If you are new here, welcome to the homepage of Rees Harps Inc., makers of Rees Concert Lever Harps since 1972. This site is filled with all kinds of information about our harps, harp accessories, harp music and general harp information. You can flit lightly through the menu or dive deeply but whatever brought you here, we are glad you came and please know that any question you may have about harps is our pleasure to answer.

From our 36-string Aberdeen Meadows harp to our 27-string Morgan Meghan harp, all of the harps in our Rees Concert Lever Harps Line are built around what makes this harp the best harp for what you want to do. Whether you are playing for yourself with your 30-string Shaylee Meadows harp or sitting in on an Irish session in your favorite pub with your 34-string Mariposa harp, the job of every harp we make is to respond to and reflect the player. We demonstrate our commitment to this concept by going so far as to make two of our harps, the Aberdeen Meadows and the Mariposa, in more than one range…because we know every player really, Really, REALLY is not the same. We also make a double harp version of our Mariposa, Shaylee and Morgan Meghan harps. If you really want to blow an audience away or if you are really serious about using a harp for music therapy, double harps are remarkably well suited to the purpose. If you are looking for something smaller, less expensive or lighter, head on over to the website for our famous Harpsicle® Harps. However large or small, simple or ornate, your harp should bring you nothing but joy. Joy is the point of what we do.

Having the right accessories for your harp can make all the difference.

Head on over to our marketplace and browse but be careful, there may very well be that something you just have to have!

Make Yours Extraordinary

At Rees we believe that a harp should not just be a reflection of your musical voice but of your artistic aesthetic as well. For some people, the eloquence of the woods speak for themselves. Others are drawn to our classic ornamentation. Then there are those who find that nothing but an utterly unique work will turn their harp into their treasure. Whatever your desire, our team of artists are here for you and welcome your ideas and dreams.
