Harpist • Composer • Teacher
Music that soothes, moves, and creates atmosphere — at concerts, events, and in work with children and adults.
Short Biography
Luiza Harasim‑Grzelka
I have been fascinated by sound ever since I was a child. The sound of the harp, in particular, has the power to soothe and evoke emotions. I hold a Master of Arts degree and am a graduate of the Academy of Music, where I studied under Prof. Katarzyna Staniewicz-Wasiółka. I also studied in Paris. I have taken part in numerous competitions both in Poland and abroad. I have won several of them, including in France. I combine my musical education with art therapy and teaching. I play, teach and compose music that helps you pause for a moment and feel a heavenly atmosphere

The fairy tale ‘Little King David’
I wrote an original fairy tale about the creation of the harp and the first constructor‑music therapist. I often read it during instrument presentations — especially when the concert has the form of a meeting with a story.
