Anne's Cordial
Reed Ferenbaugh - Harp, Vocals

Erin Reed Ferenbaugh, a recent graduate with a BA in music from Rhode Island College, is a classically trained vocalist and a folk harpist.  She finds immense enjoyment in the tight vocal harmonies that are prevalant in Anne's Cordial's arrangements, and she is excited to be able to include the unique texture and sound of the harp to the various genres of music that the band performs.  In addition to bossa nova, blues, folk and jazz arrangements explored by Anne's Cordial, her musical interests include Early music and World Folk music.

Her passion for Early Music led her to become the founding member of the Rhode Island College Early Music Ensemble under the guidance of director and early music enthusiast Ellen Santaniello.  She currently studies with Anne Azema, one of the world's leading interpreters of early vocal music and Artistic Director of the world renowned early music ensemble Boston Camarata.

She has enjoyed membership in the Bulgarian women's vocal ensemble Divi Zheni, an exciting blend of voices and instruments of traditional Bulgarian folk music led by world-renowned Bulgarian vocalist Tatiana Sarbinska. 

Prior to her involvement in music she studied as a visual artist since she was a child and attended the Lyme Academy of Fine Arts from '98-'00.  She enjoys tapping into her artisitic side when she takes a break from practicing and performing music.
