Described as "The Queen of Harps", Catrin has delighted audiences with her performances in the UK and worldwide. Born in Wales she was inspired to learn the harp at the age of five and her first major competition success came in 1999 winning the Lily Laskine International Harp Competition in France.
On winning the Young Concert Artists International Auditions in New York, Catrin went on to play in over thirty states in the USA, including the Lincoln Centre and Weill Recital Hall, Boston and Washington D.C.
Catrin is the former Royal Harpist to H.R.H. the Prince of Wales.
Catrin’s recording of Bach’s Goldberg Variations was released by Deutsche Grammophon in 2009 and entered the UK Classical charts at number 1. Her versatility in different musical genres is demonstrated in her many recordings.
2012 highlights include concerts in North Carolina, New York, Hong Kong and Australia, concertos with the European Union Chamber Orchestra, the BBC NOW, premieres of two new harp concertos written for her, a tour with Malian kora player, Toumani Diabaté and various recitals.
