PEOPLE OF ALL AGES, GENDERS AND RACES TOOK AN INTEREST IN THE MUSIC AND THE GOLDEN HARPS RAN A SUCCESSFUL TEACHING PROGRAM FOR MANY YEARS WHICH ALSO HELPED TO ADD OR REPLACE MEMBERS IN THE BAND.
THE GOLDEN HARPS HAS GONE THROUGH MANY CHANGES OVER THE YEARS; MEMBERS HAVE COME AND GONE, PRACTICE LOCATIONS HAVE MOVED ALL OVER THE CITY. BUT DESPITE THE UPS AND DOWNS, THE BAND HAS CONTINUED TO GROW IN NUMBERS, EXPERIENCE, AND RANGE.
