2026 Young Composers Project
at One Harp World
The Young Composers Project will take place between July 28-August 3, 2026, as part of One Harp World in Toronto, Canada. The program is open to harpists aged 25 and under who are national members of the American Harp Society or members of the World Harp Congress. Check out the 2023 AHS Featured Young Composers and their experiences as we plan the 2026 programming.
The Young Composers Project offers an opportunity for young harpist/composers to work with professional mentors to experience, explore, and develop a deep connection to the harp through composition. All applicants will receive written feedback from professional harpists/composers and a certificate of participation. Applicants chosen to be Featured Composers will work in master classes and individually with guest composers, and perform their works in a concert setting during One Harp World.
