Harp music has the perfect reflective and ethereal sound to accompany a funeral Mass.  For this service, I was joined by one of the vocalists from the Cathedral, Angela Rocchio.  I played prelude music as people entered the sanctuary, ending with “All I Ask of You” by Gregory Norbet, and then she sang the entrance […]
