The world’s only identical twin professional harpists, The Harp Twins — Camille and Kennerly Kitt, are set to perform their Fall Fling concert at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 25, at 49 Franklin’s Mystic Theater in Rumford. They also plan a free meet and greet after the concert.
The sisters were trained classically with university degrees in harp performance, but have a passion and flair for arranging and performing rock, metal and soundtrack music for their Harp Duet performances. In addition, the Volfgang Twins plan to join them on stage on double Viking drums for the finale of the show.
Their ability to reinvent the harp has given them the opportunity to represent the United States at four different World Harp Festivals. They have amassed more than 2.5 million fans across their social media sites and more than 150 million views on their YouTube music videos.
Mixing their virtuoso harp skills with their stunningly complex arrangements of rock, metal, Celtic, Renaissance and soundtrack classics — as well as Celtic Nordic inspired original songs — the duo delivers exciting, comedic, and interactive family-friendly performances. In addition to their Nordic-inspired original songs, Camille and Kennerly are recognized for their remarkable duet harp arrangements of some of rock and metal’s most iconic hits by the likes of Guns N’ Roses, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth, Aerosmith, AC/DC, Black Sabbath, The Rolling Stones, Blue Oyster Cult, Scorpions, Eagles, Bon Jovi, Pink Floyd, U2, Journey, Evanescence, Billy Idol, Deep Purple, and many more. Showing the breadth of their arranging talents, the twins also arrange and perform TV and movie soundtrack, anime, and video game hits. Some fan favorites include their renditions of music from “Game of Thrones,” “The Walking Dead,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Elder Scrolls,” “Final Fantasy,” “Star Trek,” “Star Wars,” “Vikings,” “Doctor Who,” “The Legend of Zelda,” “Super Mario Bros.,” “Silent Hill,” “Harry Potter,” and “The Lord of the Rings.”
The duo has released five self-produced albums.
