About Lyon Healy 150-Year Celebration
The harp occupies a position unique in the history of music. It is the oldest known instrument, having existed in one form or another, in every land and every age. Successive ages have endeavored to improve its form, enrich its tone qualities, and bring its musical possibilities under perfect control. In this line of evolution the instrument has reached its modern form in the Lyon & Healy Harp…superiority of the instrument has gained enthusiastic recognition for it wherever heard.
-Lyon & Healy Counter Sales Book, 1925We love the harp at Lyon & Healy. Testament to the fact is that the words above, written eighty-eight years ago, are still true today. While we celebrate our 150th Birthday in 2014, we will also celebrate the milestone closest to our heart:
125 Years of Harpmaking. Lyon & Healy Harps would like to thank the artistically dedicated harpists who have brought our instruments to life over the years. For you and the harpists to come, we will continue to uphold the finest principles in harpmaking, unyielding in our commitment to craft, value and service.Our celebration began with a present – the newly introduced limited-edition Lyon & Healy Style 150 concert grand harp. We would also like to celebrate more personally with you, with exquisite harp music. We are busy planning our 150th Birthday Festival that will feature a host of musicians in masterclasses, solo and/or ensemble performances in various Chicago landmark venues such as Park West, The Murphy Auditorium, Chicago Cultural Center, Fourth Presbyterian Church on the Magnificent Mile, as well as Lyon & Healy Hall and factory. I invite you to join us June 4-7, 2014, in our hometown where it all began in 1864.
