Berlin's historic and political centres are surrounded by each culture and race, all types of art, music, building, food and new ideas.  Part-memory of old Europe, part cutting-edge building site, every aspect of European culture comes together in Berlin.  From Achtung Baby to what is widely acknowledged to be the best orchestra in the world, it has always inspired artists, writers and musicians.

Camac Harps are delighted to announce that in the shade of the beautiful Schloss Charlottenburg, Berlin‘s first shop entirely devoted to the harp is now open:  Harfengalerie / Camac Berlin.  In this leafy part of town, full of museums and relaxed pavement cafés, Camac's new showroom is centrally situated, with parking and easily reached by all forms of transport. 

The Harfengalerie has two large rooms – some 120 square metres in total – stocked with Camac's range of lever, New Generation concert and electric harps.  There is also a workshop, where harps can be serviced and repaired by the on-site technician.  You can also buy music, strings, tuners, benches and all harp accessories, and browse the gallery's collection of second-hand and antique music.

 

David Rescher

Camac‘s Berlin team are David Rescher and Mike Dobek.  David is a professional harpist, who teaches at the well-known Hanns Eisler Hochschule für Musik in Berlin, and also the Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach music school.  Mike is a trained harp technician, who can service and repair your harp either on-site or in your home. 

Mike Dobek

To celebrate Harfengalerie / Camac Berlin's opening, the shop will be open all day from 11AM on Saturday 26th, with David Rescher,  Mike Dobek, Jakez François,  Eric Piron and some celebratory drinks in attendance.  Please drop in at any time throughout the day!  Jakez François will also present Camac's revolutionary new MIDI harp.
