Fundraising concert featuring Julie Nesrallah and Lori Gemmell

Event summary

Highlights

Performance by opera singer Julie Nesrallah
Appearance by principal harpist Lori Gemmell
Benefit for the Yukon Harpists Society
Support for the territory's first carbon-fibre concert harp

This benefit performance features mezzo-soprano Julie Nesrallah and Lori Gemmell, the principal harpist of the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony. The concert supports the Yukon Harpists Society in their efforts to purchase a hard-shell protective case for the Yukon Arts Centre's carbon-fibre pedal harp.

The society estimates the required case will cost approximately $5,000. While the instrument is currently housed in Whitehorse, a professional touring case is necessary to meet insurance requirements and allow the harp to be safely transported to other communities throughout the Yukon for future performances and workshops.
