Summary of The Legend of Henriette Renie: Henriette Renie et la harpe
?I am sure harpists throughout the world will love to read this inspiring account of Henriette Reni?'s life as seen through the eyes of one of her oldest and dearest friends and former students. Available now in this fine English edition prepared with devotion by Jaymee Haefner, this small volume gives the reader a glimpse of the heart and soul of this great harpist and pedagogue.? Susann McDonald ----- ?This is truly one of the finest and most detailed compilations of Reni??s life in existence today. It has always been sad to me that Mlle Reni? did not receive the tributes via the media that she so truly deserved, probably because of the time in which she lived. For Carlos Salzedo to say, ?Mlle Reni? is higher above all harpists than the heavens above the earth? is very profound. It is so helpful to the harp world to have the information provided in this book and I will encourage all my students and friends to read it. This book represents many hours and years of careful research and devotion to an important cause.? Linda Wood Rollo ----- "Henriette Reni? was one of the most inspirational harpists in history. She set a standard of excellence that harpists for generations will aspire to. This thorough and comprehensive look at Reni??s life and achievements is a treasure, containing information that is imperative to all harpists." Dr. Carrol McLaughlin ----- ?The Legend of Henriette Reni? is the most extensive resource currently available on the life of this significant artist in the history of the harp whose life reflected, intersected, and influenced many of the artistic and cultural trends in late nineteenth to early-mid-twentieth century France. It is an immeasurable contribution to the harp world and to those who are interested in learning about a person who profoundly affected her chosen profession yet also reflected the cultural and social restrictions of her time." Dr. Ann Yeung ----- ?There are so few harpists in the world that each of the great ones leavesComposers & Musicians Books
