"working with Ellie is a breath of fresh air. She always brings an inspiring musical elegance "
Cassell The Beatmaker, Ivor Novello Award Winning Producer
Welcome to Eleanor's website for herself and her duo Tāla Tarang, harp and tabla!
Eleanor Turner is one of the world's leading harpists, creating intriguing and meaningful live experiences, as well as contributing to other artists’ projects. Her western classical technique informs, but does not inhibit, her choices as she carves a unique path through her life and career. Eleanor is a passionate advocate for new music and she is launching a fund, for commissioning music, at her online 'Reflections and Echoes' concert on 30th November.
Tāla Tarang (meaning ‘rhythm waves’) is the vibrant and dynamic pairing of tabla maestro Mendi Singh and harp virtuoso Eleanor Turner; an electrifying fusion of rhythmic grooves and intricate melodies. The pair have enjoyed a ten year partnership and were supported in 2022 by a Develop Your Creative Practice award from ACE. Tāla Tarang "creatively weave strands of traditional, contemporary, folk, and classical music into a musical tapestry reflecting world cultures and celebrating humanity” Dr. Bob Ramdhanie, MBE.
