Alice Giles is one of the world's preeminent harpists, celebrated both for her compelling stage presence and her deeply expressive musicianship. Born in Australia, Giles received her musical education at the Canberra School of Music under the tutelage of June Loney and subsequently furthered her craft at the Hochschule für Musik in Hanover, Germany. Her talent at the harp has taken her performances globally to prestigious venues and with renowned orchestras, marking her as a leading figure in the classical harp realm.

Her discography reflects a diverse range of musical periods and styles, with a particular affinity for contemporary works. "Christmas Music for Harp" showcases her ability to bring a fresh voice to traditional pieces while "The Meaning of Water" is a reflective foray into the thematic inspiration of nature. Giles’s versatility is further evidenced in "Musik für die Welt von Morgen II - Komponistinnen im Portrait," which explores cutting-edge compositions by female composers. "Harp in Chamber Music" and "Harp Concertos: Ginastera / Jolivet / Glière" display her encompassing grasp of the harp’s role in both intimate and orchestral settings. Her solo prowess shines in "Alice Giles: Harfe Solo," an album that captures the intimate nuances of her solo harp performances. Each project she undertakes is a testament to her dedication to her craft and her enduring contribution to the world of classical music.
