What do you need to provide if I play for you?

Outside locations: There must be shade available if the weather is hot. The harp cannot be in the sun for any length of time. I cannot play well if my hands are hot and sticky, or cold. In case of rain or drizzle, a covered area will need to be available.

A minimum of 4 square feet of space is necessary for comfortable playing. Adequate lighting should be provided, although I may bring a lamp for additional lighting. I cannot play in the dark. I provide my own stool and music stand. I do not have any amplification equipment. If playing for more than 1 hour, I will take a 5-10 minute break each hour.

I have a wheeled cart for my harp, but if there are steps or very uneven ground involved, I may need help to carry my harp, etc. to the performance area.
