Education
Marianne Smit has played the harp since 1995. She got her first harp lessons from her mother Gertru Smit-Pasveer. After one year she became student of Anke Anderson.
As of September 1998 she became a student of Erika Waardenburg, first in the Young-Talent department, later in the pre-music-academy of Amsterdam. In June 2007 she graduated ‘cum laude’ on her Bachelor exam. She's currently in the second year of studies for a Masters diploma.
Marianne has participated in an audition training with Petra van der Heide (harpist from the Dutch Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra). In this course she won the first prize which resulted in her participation in two concerts with the Dutch Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. She also played several times in productions with the Dutch Radio Philharmonic Orchestra. [1]
