Experience Isabel Jennie Ainsworth

Isabel is an award-winning harpist currently based in Surrey and performs across England. She’s been playing the harp since she was four-years-old and as a key member of the National Youth Harp Orchestra of Great Britain (NYHO) for 14 years, in which she was Section Leader, Co-Leader and ultimately Leader. She has enjoyed performing at a variety of concert venues including St Johns Smiths Square, Cadogan Hall, St James’s Church Piccadilly and Menhuin Hall. 
Her ensemble career has taken her around the UK, Europe and the United States, performing in numerous beautiful venues including Albi Cathedral in the South of France and St Stephen’s Basilica in Budapest. One of her key achievements was playing Mahler’s 6th Symphony at The Royal Festival Hall as part of the Duet Philharmonic Orchestra.
Isabel has also supported the musical director with the Junior Section of the NYHO in which she taught 15 young harpists, aged 5-11, helping them build their ensemble and performing skills. 
Isabel was also awarded the Most Promising Harpist award from the Four Girls Four Harps at just age 13.
Having achieved her Grade 8 at 13, she has attained her Diploma from the London College of Music and has spent her time widening her solo repertoire. 
She’s a very versatile harpist with an eye for sight-reading, and would be able to accommodate any specific music requests, so would be a great addition to any event or concert.
