“With the release of “Celtic Journeys”, Brandywine Harps adds another jewel in the crown of the tradition of harp orchestras. Janet Witman’s masterful arrangements are a joy to hear, in particular a truly delightful treatment of “Carolan’s Concerto” arranged as a rag! Thoroughly enjoyable!”

“Hi Janet, Just a quick but heartfelt thank-you for your music. You have a devoted following here in western Montana, and a small group gets together regularly to play your ensemble music. We cannot get together without playing “America the Beautiful” and sighing, loudly, collectively. “Ohhhhhh, so beautiful”–it’s becoming funny! Thanks for giving us so much pleasure!”
