Lavinia Meijer (KOR) - The Glass Effect

The influence of the American composer Philip Glass on contemporary music has only grown in recent decades. From film to opera and symphony: his minimalist language is present everywhere and inspires a new generation of composers, from Bryce Dessner to Nils Frahm and Ólafur Arnalds. Lavinia Meijer belongs to the most leading harpists in the world. As an exclusive Sony Classical International Artist she performs from Carnegie Hall to the Berliner Philharmonie. She was born in South Korea and grew up in the Netherlands, where she developed her passion for pushing the boundaries of her instrument. Her special bond with the work of Philip Glass began after a meeting in 2011, when he gave her permission to arrange Metamorphosis for harp. Since then, she has translated several works by Glass to her instrument. With her boundary-pushing interpretations, Lavinia Meijer enchants her audience worldwide. Now it is up to you to let yourself be touched.
