Anna started learning violin when she was 2 years old, but her heart was set on the harp from the early age of three. After two long years of waiting to play the harp , she was lucky to commence her studies with Dr. Jacinta Dennett - harp tutor at Melbourne Conservatorium of Music.

how to be happy
