Parker Ramsay’s career eludes easy categorization, being unique in its integration of projects and performances on the harp, organ and harpsichord. Equally at home on modern and period instruments, he specializes in breathing new life into the canon as well as delving into new and underperformed works.
Parker will undertake a residency at IRCAM in Paris throughout the 2022-3 season, working with composer Josh Levine on Anyway, a new solo work for harp and live electronics. He will also join forces with Latitude 49 to premiere a chamber concerto by Jared Miller, commissioned by the Canada Council for the Arts. Other forthcoming commissions include works by Sarah Kirkland Snider, Matthew Ricketts, Alyssa Weinberg, Tom Morrison, Saad Haddad, Aida Shirazi and inti figgis-vizueta.
A native of Nashville, Tennessee, Parker began harp studies with his mother at a young age before moving to the UK at age 16. He served as organ scholar at King’s College, Cambridge from 2010-13 under Stephen Cleobury. After receiving his bachelor’s degree in history at Cambridge, he pursued graduate studies in historical keyboards at Oberlin Conservatory. In 2014, he was awarded First Prize at the Sweelinck International Organ Competition. He then studied modern harp at The Juilliard School, under the tutelage of Nancy Allen. He lives in New York City.
