Jennifer Port

Jennifer Port was booked by Madonna to perform on the harp for her wedding to Guy Ritchie.

Jennifer was brought up in the far northern village of Golspie, where she first found a keen interest in music. She began learning piano at the age of 8, and from then, went on to learn oboe, guitar, clarsach, cor anglais & singing.

She began learning to play clarsach with the encouragement of an old teacher. She then joined the Clarsach Society & attended tuition weekends & festivals alongside weekly lessons. She participated in various Feisean throughout Scotland & successfully competed in the National Mod for a number of years.

Jennifer has performed at the weddings of Madonna & Guy Ritchie, and Travis guitarist, Andy Dunlop to Jo Monaghan.

After graduating from the Royal Scottish Academy of Music & Drama with a BA(Scottish Music)Honours in July 2003 having studied clarsach, singing and composition, Jennifer is now a full time, freelance musician, where she performs at wedding and corporate events. The Clarsach is portable and not too large so is ideal for any wedding venue.

She can also accompany the singing of Hymns. Or, as an alternative, she can play at the reception venue, during drinks or dinner.
