  • Opening the Gate of the Heart - Christine Tulis

    Part of the Festival of Sacred Music Series The harp has been loved all over the world for its healing powers since ancient times and is considered a bridge between Heaven and Earth in many cultures. Join us for a special concert of original sacred music to free your imagination and open your heart to the celestial sounds of the Celtic harp. Christine Tulis will share songs inspired by the poetry of Rumi, other mystical saints, and her personal inner experiences. Her music is deeply devotional and blends traditional Celtic styles with Medieval, Renaissance, and Middle Eastern influences. Join us for the concert, followed by a reception with pre-dinner snacks and drinks. Christine Tulis Christine had a life-changing, spiritual experience the first time she heard the Celtic harp live at the age of 22. She discovered the mystical poetry of Rumi shortly thereafter and felt called to combine the sound of the harp with poetic spiritual imagery for healing. Christine has performed widely all over the U.S. as well as at two United Nations events, Chartres Cathedral in France, Grace Cathedral, and Harvard University. She self produced three recordings, including PORTAL which won a spiritual music award from the Moondance International Film Festival in Boulder, Colorado.
