 Dr.
Julietta Anne Rabens teaches classical and folk harp at Apple
Mountain Music.
Julietta’s
doctorate is in music composition from University of
Nebraska-Lincoln where she composed a harp concerto for her
dissertation. Her master’s degree in harp is from Northern Illinois
University where she studied harp with Liz Cifani, and received
training in Healing Harps from Dr. Ron Price.
Julietta is
passionate about the art of teaching and has enjoyed working with a
diverse range of students. Her approach is flexible, assisting
students in achieving their personal goals. Some unique areas of
training and experience include working with gifted students,
special needs, and helping students overcome performance anxiety
issues. She has developed a series of graded harp pieces for adult
beginners in four volumes called “Classics at Your Fingertips” which
is available through Apple Mountain Music. She has created a variety
of fun theory games for children to learn through play.
In addition to
being well grounded in technique, students are encouraged to explore
a wide range of repertoires including classical and folk traditions
from around the world, such as Celtic and Latin American harp. As a
composer and improviser, Julietta has performed with the “Key’s
Please” experimental ensemble from Minneapolis MN. She brings her
enthusiasm for new music and ideas to the lesson studio by
encouraging student creativity through jazz and free improvisation
and composition.
