The American Youth Harp Ensemble (AYHE) continues to dazzle audiences around the world as America's premiere youth harp ensemble, well known for their musical sophistication, rich sound, emotional power, and imaginative programming of repertoire. At the heart of the AYHE is a passion to not just create beautiful music with the harp, but also leave our young harpists with the desire to give back to the community in meaningful ways. The result is great harpists who are also great community citizens. As they assist their less fortunate peers in learning the harp, perform, and tour, these students, individually and collectively, truly serve as Virginia's "goodwill ambassadors."
