Harpist Emily Granger has a new release titled A Thing Of Beauty <\/em>out on the ABC Classic label.<\/p>\n

The American-born, Australian-based harpist is one of the country\u2019s most compelling musical voices. To celebrate the launch of her latest solo album on the ABC Classic label, she is bringing this exquisite collection of pieces to audiences around Australia in intimate, live performances in\u00a0Melbourne (7 July), Sydney (13 July) and finally the Tyalgum Music Festival in the NSW Northern Rivers (27 September).<\/p>\n

In a world that rarely slows down, A Thing Of Beauty<\/em> is an invitation to pause. Praised for her many outstanding recordings, this latest collection marks Emily\u2019s return to what she says matters most in these times – simplicity, stillness and unapologetic beauty.<\/p>\n

Featuring the work of Australian women composers, including two new commissions, the tour repertoire showcases the album\u2019s path through vulnerability and authenticity, from gentle lullabies to portraits of vivid landscapes. Sharing the poetry and stories behind the music, Emily crafts an intimate concert experience that speaks directly to the heart, her natural warmth creating an immediate and lasting connection with listeners.<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0 \u00a0 Melbourne Tuesday 7 July 7pm at Melbourne Recital Centre, Primrose Potter Salon
\n\u2022\u00a0 \u00a0 Sydney Monday 13 July 7pm at Sydney Opera House, Utzon Room
\n\u2022\u00a0 \u00a0 Tyalgum Sunday 27 September 10am at Tyalgum Music Festival<\/p>\n

A Thing Of Beauty features works by Alice Chance, Christina Sonnemann Baehr, Anne Cawrse, Ulpia Erdos, Sarah Elise Thompson, Margaret Tesch-Muller, Tara Minton, Elena Kats-Chernin, Katy Abbott, Nat Bartsch & Sally Greenaway. The title track, A Thing Of Beauty<\/em>, is by Adelaide-based composer and cellist Hilary Kleinig.
\n
\n<\/i>Emily Granger is Principal Harp with the Queensland Symphony Orchestra and a faculty member at Queensland Conservatorium of Music. Her debut solo album In Transit<\/em> established her as one of Australia’s most distinctive harp voices, attracting an international streaming audience and bringing repertoire by living composers to new listeners. A Thing Of Beauty<\/em> extends that work, deepening her focus on Australian women composers and on the role of beauty as a form of care in contemporary life.<\/p>\n
