Tiffany Wu

Harp

Harpist Tiffany Wu is based in NYC and LA.

Tiffany’s classical background serves as the technical foundation for her diverse career, which encompasses performing operas, musicals, pop standards, experimental music, and more. Her performances with the Brooklyn Chamber Orchestra, United Nations Orchestra, and others have taken her to venues such as Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center. She has been privileged to work with notable artists, including Kate Baldwin, Vince Bell, and Anne Akiko Meyers, among others. When not on stage, Tiffany also plays for private clients and engagements, including for companies such as Citadel and Anthropologie. Past season highlights include a small concert series featuring contemporary music by female Asian composers and a recording of Marion Bauer’s first symphony.

An avid proponent of new music, Tiffany enjoys workshopping, premiering, and recording new works and musicals by contemporary composers. Her interests include studying the role of the arts in justice, producing multimedia performance experiences, and exploring music as a civic practice. To this end, she has worked with The Confined Arts, PROTESTRA, and other such organizations to explore the possibilities of socially engaged art.

She holds performance degrees from Northwestern University and New York University, and her principal teachers include Lyric Opera harpists Elizabeth Cifani and Lynn Williams, as well as jazz harpist Brandee Younger. In her spare time, she forgets her tea on the windowsill, enjoys Ghibli movies, writes poetry, and is a passably acceptable plant mom.
