About

Louis Lynch is an award-winning harpist, composer and recording artist. His harp music is resonant, bold and beautiful and perfect for weddings of any size, in any indoor or outdoor venue.

One of the only jazz and classical harpists in Pennsylvania, Louis plays a stunning range of music, from wedding standards, to pop and rock, to jazz and Celtic. He also plays piano and organ, if needed, and can arrange for harp duos and other ensembles of musical instruments.

A wedding professional for many years, Louis helps you plan just the music you want to set the tone for your ceremony. Solo harp arrangement of almost any song is possible! Every wedding ceremony is special, personalized and beautifully performed.

Louis uses a very reasonable set-fee for weddings -- with no hourly charges or mileage fees for central Pennsylvania events -- starting at $200 for a basic wedding. A lovely combination package of classical ceremony music and popular love songs for cocktail hour is his most popular. As a seasoned wedding professional who recognizes that your wedding is, above all, a spiritual ceremony, Louis has but one "business" requirement -- a face-to-face meeting (or phone interview if needed) so you can pick just the selections you want and plan the wedding music that makes the most of your occasion.

His harp playing has graced virtually every church, wedding center, outdoor venue and stage in central Pennsylvania, and beyond. He is a recommended provider of music services for Hotel Hershey, Felicita, Mazzi, the Hilton, the Sheraton, the Radisson, Peter Allen House, Cameron Estates, John Harris Mansion, and many many more!

Louis currently serves as music director for Harrisburg Harp Orchestra. He has published several books of original musical arrangements for solo harp and harp orchestra. He has appeared internationally as a harpist, pianist and vocalist, with notable performances at Lincoln Center, the Grand Old Opry, the White House, Broadway theaters, New York's St. Patrick Cathedral and Cathedral of St. John the Divine, and countless others!

Very Enjoyable!!!

We hired Louis to play piano at our cocktail hour, and the harp during dinner at our reception. His music was wonderful, and the harp provided a unique dining experience for our guests. We didn't have a set playlist we wanted from him, but his music selections were great! He can play pretty much anything on the harp!! His fee was very reasonable. If you want something different for your reception, Louis is the one you want to provide it...very talented!!!!!

We could not have made a better choice in choosing Louis as our harpist for our wedding ceremony and reception afterward. He communicated with us to make sure he understood our tastes and tailored his set specifically for us. I had multiple requests and he was always very accommodating in anything we asked of him. I just wish I could hear him play again, it was incredibly beautiful!

Louis performed at our ceremony at Excelsior in Lancaster for our wedding in October 2017. We wanted the sounds of a harp for a beautiful backdrop to our wedding, and Louis went above and beyond. From our first phone call (we're from out of town), he played us some samples on speaker phone, and then invited us to his studio the next time we'd be in the area. We went, and we never felt rushed. He played all sorts of samples, and his "library of songs" is huge. If there' s something specific that he doesn't know, he may be able to learn it for you. Louis is an incredibly nice guy, who is flexible, affordable, responsive, and very helpful with suggestions. We're so happy he was a part of our big day.

Louis was such a wonderful addition to our wedding! He played during our ceremony and cocktail hour, and didn't disappoint!! He is incredibly talented, and made our winter wedding even more enchanting. So many guests complimented on the music and the ambiance it created. He is so inexpensive, but his work exceeded our expectations, and then some! We would definitely recommend him for any wedding or special event.

My Husband and I love Louis! He is incredibly talented on the Harp and extremely wonderful to work with. He played everything and more than we asked for. During our consultation, we asked Louis about a few different songs. If he didn't have the music, he would look it up and start playing! It was incredible. He was extremely affordable and flexible. I had a question for him about a month before our weddi, and he called me from the grocery store! He was so accommodating and we cannot wait to use him for future events! Your guests will love him as much as you will!

Louis is fantastic! He met with us before the ceremony and made sure to review all selections with us. He is reasonably priced and played for both our ceremony and reception. My husband is from the Isle of Man and Louis learned a specific piece of music just for our ceremony. It is a piece from my husband's heritage. I recommend Louis 100%!

Louis is absolutely fantastic! We planned our wedding long distance and Louis made it super easy - even playing his harp over the phone for us to hear music samples for our ceremony. We described the kind of couple we are and Louis knew just what to play to fit us and our wedding. I couldn't recommend Louis more!

We used Louis as our harpist for our ceremony & cocktail hour. He was absolutely amazing! He doesn't have a set music scheduled for each event like others do. He caters to what you as a couple are like. He definitely made our wedding day special! Thank you!
