Hanna Lane - Our Harpist

Since her first performance of La Bohème at the age of fourteen, Hannah has been a fixture in the Australian music scene. She is a versatile performer, lending her skills to everything from opera and charity events to television commercials and session work.
Hannah has a passion for orchestral playing and is regularly engaged as a harpist for orchestral performances in Melbourne. Notably, she has performed with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, the Australian Youth Orchestra, the Melbourne Opera Orchestra and the Orchestra Project under Maestro Oleg Caetani.
Hannah completed her Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Music in 2006 at the University of Melbourne. Currently studying with Delyth Stafford, she has also received tuition from prominent Australian harpists Julie Raines, Marshall McGuire and Sebastien Lipman.
Committed to fostering performances of contemporary music and Australian works, Hannah has performed premieres of works by Australian composers including Andrian Pertout, Steven Hodgson and Cindy Chen, and has recently commissioned a new work for harp by Melbourne composer Shaun Jones.
An experienced performer, Hannah is frequently engaged as a harpist for weddings, parties, corporate functions and special events and has an extensive repertoire of music to suit any occasion.
