A Lifetime Devoted
to the Art of the Harp

Christine Holvick is one of Santa Barbara's most distinguished musicians. Her musical journey began at age six, when she set her heart on becoming a concert harpist — a dream she has fulfilled many times over across stages, cruise ships, five-star hotel lounges, and intimate garden ceremonies.

Holding a Bachelor of Music (magna cum laude) and a Master of Music in Jazz Studies from USC, Christine brings rare versatility to every performance — equally at home in a Baroque sonata, a jazz standard, or a Celtic air.
