“The idea of Glowing Harp is to unite competition, recitals, and master-classes and also to give an opportunity to young harpist to play with the orchestra,” said Art Director Veronika Lemishenko, who co-founded the competition in 2014 with Larisa Klevtsova, now its Chief Manager. Salvi Harps sponsored the 2017 event, and jury members included Chantal Mathieu, Ekaterina Musliyenko-Savkina, Delphine-Constantin Reznik, Alina Bzhezhinska-Lazorkina, and Larisa Klevtsova.
