Parker Ramsay’s career, somewhat uncommon, in its integration of in contemporary music and historical performance, defies easy categorization. He is equally at home on modern and period harps, being dedicated to invigorating the existing standard repertoire, while delving into new and underperformed works. In 2020, the recording of his transcription of Bach’s Goldberg Variations for the King’s College, Cambridge label was praised as “remarkably special” (Gramophone).

Parker will undertake a residency at IRCAM in Paris throughout the 2022-3 season, working with composer Josh Levine on Anyway, a new solo work for harp and live electronics. https://parkerramsay.com/
