Miriavyn on SoundBetter

The sound of fairy tales, ready to be recorded for your project, whatever genre you like. With roots in Celtic, medieval, Nordic and Japanese music, me and my harps aim to bring more magic to the world.

Freelancing harpist since 2001, with the do-it-all-yourself-approach which has taught me a lot about music production. 3 solo albums released (Spotify-Miriavyn), hundreds of gigs. I can offer you harp textures, improvisations, arrangements and melodies, read or played by ear. Furthermore I can provide vocals, both ethereal and soft, and the Nordic "kulning", as well as characteristic and experimental that for example mimic fantasy creatures. And some piano.

Easiest solution is home studio recordings, 3 tracks for each take, and additional takes can be added if wanted.
I have two harps, a Celtic 36 string with a soft and warm tone, and a lap harp with 19 strings and a more distinct treble sound. The big harp has installed pic-ups, and I also have a Röde condenser, a Blue Snowball, and some dynamic mics to back it up for a wider range of sound to choose from. The tracks can be delivered clean, distorted or with a range of effects, raw or lightly edited.

For smoother collaboration, if available please provide a demo version of the song, with count-in, BPM and lyrics or chords (I can catch the melody quite easy, but chords and harmonies I prefer to have written down to save time.)

    I wanted a harp track for a cover song, and Miriavyn was the perfect person to make it. Not only did she create it by my quick deadline but she made it sound perfectly magical! Miriavyn is a truly gifted harp-player, and I hope to work with her again.

    Miriavyn is an incredibly gifted player and an AMAZING personality to work with. So kind, flexible and nice! The recording quality is absolutely exceptional. Really, both types of mics used sound incredible. And again... pure magic in the playing. Be very specific at the beginning of the session about you expect to receive your files - and Miriavyn will definitely get you what you need. I would work with her again in a heartbeat - and she totally made the song I was working on so many times bett

    Outstanding quality of captured recordings included mounds of optional takes, with a variety of mic and pickup sources. Miriavyn exceeded my expectations and I will hire her again. Her communication is excellent. Her turnaround is excellent.

    It has been a real pleasure working with Miriavyn. Very good taste with the harp, and makes everything very easy. Good recording quality, and a lot of detail with the recording process. Always very fast communication, he is very concerned that the end result is to your liking. Thank you!

    I've contacted Miriavyn after a very long online search for a genuine Kulning performance, an ancient Swedish singing technique, which is almost non-existent as an online service.
    Miriavyn has recorded a staggering amount of files for me to use. She went to perform numerous recordings outdoors in order to create a truly authentic environment for her performance, exampled professionalism and commitment at the highest level imaginable.
    Great communication and overall experience!

    Miriavyn work very hard to ensure that I had many quality takes to choose from for my song. She also did an excellent job recording for another one of my songs despite the part being very difficult. If you need a harpist, I highly recommend Miriavyn!
