Daniela Lorenz, Paraguayan harp as solo instrument

On this channel, I showcase the Paraguayan harp as a versatile solo instrument.
I grew up in a small Swiss mountain village and discovered my love for Latin American music at an early age. After studying rhythmics, classical music, and piano at the Zurich Conservatory, I learned to play the Paraguayan harp with Marcelino Benítez (Switzerland), Nicolas Caballero (Madrid), and in Paraguay.

My goal is to promote Latin American harp music in Europe. I arrange and compose for the Paraguayan harp, teach this unique instrument, and have released several CDs. During the pandemic, I developed a video course for learning the harp independently. In 2022, I published a sheet music book featuring Latin American music for pedal and lever harps.

Concerts, workshops, teaching, and collaborations with other musicians round out my work. I live near Zurich and continue my artistic journey with passion.
