World Harp Congress



The World Harp Congress is a private nonprofit organization founded in 1981 as an outgrowth of the International Harp Weeks held in The Netherlands for twenty years under the leadership of Phia Berghout and Maria Korchinska.

The organization holds a triennial harp festival (also called the World Harp Congress) and promotes the performance of new music for the harp. The World Harp Congress also publishes a biannual journal entitled the World Harp Congress Review.
