Over two hours of harp repertoire, all of it from memory, and a habit of arranging whatever else you ask for. Kim Kirkman has been playing professionally for more than thirty years on the Sunshine Coast, and the song list wanders happily across centuries: Pachelbel's Canon and Debussy's Clair de Lune next to Danny Boy, The Ash Grove and Planxty Irwin, then Fields of Gold, Here Comes the Sun and the Forrest Gump feather theme. Weddings, funerals and morning melodies are all regular work. The setup is about as simple as live music gets. Two minutes and a chair, and the room sounds different.

Good to know
What to expect
Thirty years of professional playing behind the instrument, and it tells in the first minute. Kim knows the repertoire cold, so nothing is being read off a stand or worked out on the spot. What you get is a harpist who has done this at enough weddings, funerals and daytime events to be entirely unbothered by whatever your run sheet does, and a sound that quietly changes the feel of a room without ever competing with conversation.
