Leah Jorgensen is a harpist and soprano in Houston, Texas. Along with classical, she also plays celtic, show tunes, jazz, religious, and popular music, including pop rock and country. She performs on both pedal (classical) and folk (celtic) harps, performs on her own harps, and will travel. She can and has performed with other musicians including vocalists, flutists, bagpipers, violinists, and others.

Leah's interest in music piqued at a very early age, thanks to her mother starting her on piano at the age of 5, and began classical harp training at the age of 9. She has performed in many orchestras including the Brazos Valley Symphony, the University of Houston Symphony, the Houston Baptist University Orchestra, the Greater Houston Youth Orchestra, the Galveston Symphony, the Texas Music Educator's Association Honor Choir's orchestra, the North Houston Symphony, Region XXIII Choir, St. Laurence Chamber Singers, the Fort Bend Symphony Orchestra, and many others. She has played under the direction of many brilliant conductors including Franz Krager and John Rutter.

Some venues she has performed in include the River Oaks Country Club, The St. Regis Hotel for both high tea and dinner, The Houstonian, The Brownstone, La Tour d'Argent, Aldo's, Hessni's, Vargo';s and many others. She has been seen on the stages of Revels Houston, The Country Playhouse, the Fort Bend Theatre, the Texas Renaissance Festival, the Garden in the Heights, McGonigel’s Mucky Duck, The Grand 1894 Opera House, the Stafford Centre, and many local churches. Her claims to fame are being chosen to sing backup to Lee Greenwood, having the honor to perform for the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Lady Margaret Thatcher, and performing with the band Kansas (best known for their hit, "Dust in the Wind").
