Myiesha Maisuria

About

Brisbane-based harpist Myiesha Maisuria has been captivated by the harp since the age of 8, starting on the Celtic lever harp before advancing to the pedal harp at the age of 13. She is currently a first-year Bachelor of Music student at the Queensland Conservatorium and is excited to continue her journey of musical development. Myiesha is mentored by renowned soloist and chamber musician Emily Granger, the current principal harpist of the Queensland Symphony Orchestra. As an experienced orchestral musician, Myiesha has performed as principal harp of Queensland Youth Symphony and Brisbane Philharmonic Orchestra, while participating in an Australian Youth Orchestra Season, two National Music Camps and the Young Symphonists program. Keen to explore a variety of different genres, Myiesha has also played in musicals produced by Lynch & Paterson and performed in the 4MBS Opera Gala in partnership with Ensemble Q. As a soloist, Myiesha has won first prize in Harp Society of Queensland competitions and regularly volunteers to perform at their community events.
