Harpaxe

Harpaxe is the alter ego of Scottish hymn writer John David Coupland who uses his creation to explore the world of instrumental music. With over 40 years of composing behind him he still finds new ways to create charming and graceful music. He is influenced by The Shadows, the Beatles and by traditional Scottish folk music. The Year Album by Harpaxe combines a neo sixties format and sound of clean electric guitar, acoustic 12 string, strings, bass and drums, with the compositional techniques of the great classical composers.
