Adding unique class and elegance to any wedding or special event.







Hi! I'm Emily (Sights) Fife, a professional harpist whose lifelong devotion to music began in Henderson, Kentucky, where I first discovered the harp at the age of eight. What began as a childhood fascination soon became a calling, shaping a career defined by artistry, refinement, and a deep love for sharing music's beauty.
With over 30 years of experience, I bring a graceful and polished presence to every performance. I hold a degree in Music Management from the University of Evansville, along with a Master's degree in Public Service Administration, credentials that reflect both my musical expertise and professional excellence.
Specializing in weddings and special events, I am honored to provide an atmosphere of elegance and sophistication for life's most meaningful moments. I perform on an ebony Lyon & Healy Concert Grand Pedal Harp as well as a Lyon & Healy Prelude Lever Harp, instruments renowned for their exquisite sound and timeless beauty.
Based in Bloomington, Indiana, I proudly serve clients within a three-hour radius throughout southern Indiana and central and western Kentucky. It would be my pleasure to help create a memorable and enchanting musical experience for your wedding or special event.

Thank you so much for playing the harp for Victoria's wedding. It was beautiful. So many guests commented to me how special it was. You gave the ceremony a very special flair. You are a very talented girl and your music was heavenly. Good luck in your future and rest assured I will recommend you to everyone I know.

Highly recommend! Emily played harp for my wedding. She had never been to the ceremony site prior to the wedding date but came in plenty of time to set up and say hello. She has a wonderful selection of songs and even learned a modern song for our recessional. It turned out perfectly! She also played lightly at times to fill those 'awkward silences.' Her beautiful music gave our ceremony that romantic and special touch that we wanted. Thank you so much for making our day sound as lovely as it felt!

Emily played for my wedding ceremony and I can't speak highly enough about it. She is a huge talent and her beautiful playing brought tears to my eyes! All the music was very well selected on her part and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. If you need music at your event she is highly recommended!

Emily played for Twin Lakes Regional Medical Center Volunteer Auxiliary for their installation of officer ceremonies as well as to celebrate volunteer week. Emily is just an amazingly talented harpist! The music was beautiful and perfectly chosen for this event. The entire group thoroughly enjoyed Emily playing the harp and I’m certain would have sat and listened until Emily had blisters on her fingers if they could have. Not only was the music beautiful; but so is Emily, both inside and out. She wore a beautiful dress which sets the tone for an elegant experience. I hope that all those who see this review, remember this local talent and let her help make your event something extra special! Thank you Emily! Welcome to Grayson County!
