Clarsach in Cowboy Boots

Leah Jorgensen presents “Clarsach in Cowboy Boots: Echoes of Scotland, Whispers of Texas” on 23 May 2026 at Newlands South Church — a rare chance to hear an internationally seasoned performer who traded a successful classical career in the U.S. for the soul of the Scottish clàrsach.

Now based in Glasgow, Jorgensen has immersed herself in the traditional scene, becoming one of Scotland’s most respected harpists. Blending the lyricism of Scottish tradition with the storytelling spirit of her Texan roots, Jorgensen’s performance offers something truly distinctive — intimate, evocative, and deeply personal.

With roots in Texas and a heart in Scotland, her performances weave together two musical worlds- one shaped by misty glens and ancient traditions, the other by open skies and frontier melodies.
