Amy Turk is a harpist, arranger, composer and session artist from the UK.

She is one of the most-watched solo harpists on YouTube, attracting millions of views to her ever-increasing list of video uploads.

With special interests in percussion, video game music, film music and popular music of all styles, Amy has created a unique career path through her presence online, pioneering arrangements for solo harp and ensembles.

Using YouTube as her main platform Amy has created a worldwide audience for her work, taking the harp out of the concert hall and bringing it straight into people’s homes. Through the use of established and newly-discovered extended techniques for harp, she has spearheaded the transformation of the harp into a percussive instrument, and found new ways to encompass a wider range of musical genres, from Vivaldi to Napalm Death. Her arrangements have been regularly broadcast on BBC Radio 3 and shared online through Classic FM.

Classically trained from an early age, Amy has been transcribing music she loves throughout her career, with her first pop arrangement for harp ensemble receiving a world premiere at the Royal Albert Hall when she was fifteen years old. Whilst studying for a Master of Arts at the Royal Academy of Music with head of harp Karen Vaughan, she elected to transcribe and perform J.S. Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D Minor BWV 565 for her final recital, and a filmed performance of this piece subsequently became one of her first and most successful uploads to YouTube.

In addition to maintaining a regular video upload schedule, Amy writes and performs for remote recording sessions, collaborating with artists across the world from her living room studio space. Her first full-length album, Song of Time, a concept album featuring twenty five arrangements for harp, ocarina, percussion and voice from the classic 1998 video game The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, is available now for download and streaming.
