Biography
Joel Andrews, a spiritual harpist, was immersed in the world of music from his birth in 1928.
Andrews' father was a musical entertainer who toured the world, exposing the young Andrews to many exotic cultures.
When he was six, his parents divorced;
his mother remarried an authoritarian man who, nevertheless, filled the house with classical music from his enormous record collection.
Andrews sought emotional support from his maternal grandmother, who bought him a full-size concert harp when he was thirteen.

In the '30s and '40s, Andrews grew spiritually from visits to his uncle's commune in Pismo Beach, California.
Here, he interacted with a number of influential artists, poets, dancers, and spiritual leaders, including Krishnamurti, Isadora Duncan, and Alan Watts.

Andrews learned about astrology, psychic awareness, and spirituality, yet also felt drawn to the music of the swing era.
While earning his bachelor's degree in theory and composition at the University of Santa Barbara, Andrews formed both a jazz group and an experimental group "dedicated to healing through free improvisation."
His classical harp education progressed through master classes with famed harpist Carlos Salzedo.

At age 21, he enlisted (to avoid the draft) in the Air Force to play in the concert band and Air Force Symphony.

While still in the service, at age 23, Andrews experienced a series of visions, "illumination, a touch of cosmic consciousness," and spent a whole month in a state of bliss.
From that time on, he continually studied cosmic consciousness and other planes of existence.

After being discharged from the service, Andrews continued his harp education at the Cleveland Institute of Music and began a teaching career at the age of 27 as head of the harp department at the University of Texas.
In 1960, he arrived in San Francisco, where he threw himself into the rich beatnik scene, the cultural riches of the city, and the spiritual offerings of the Monterey area.
In 1966, he studied with music healer Kay Ortman.
1968 saw Andrews continue his classical concert harp career, which included a musician-in-residence stint at North Carolina State and a series of solo concerts.
In 1972, he became harpist for the improvisational jazz group the Paul Winter Consort,
but the following year, Andrews withdrew from the formal music world to be a metaphysical healer.
He approaches his music healing through science (he has worked with noted researcher Marcel Vogel), symbolism, and working with higher sources.

Still playing his concert harp, Andrews has for many years specialized in improvising custom healing music;
he has completed more than 2,500 such therapeutic tapes.
Many of his commercially available recordings are used for meditation, natural childbirth, massage, healing, and movement.

A key early recording from 1976 is The Violet Flame, which is "co-created with the Master Saint Germaine."

Andrews has his own label, Golden Harp, and lives in Mendocino, California, with his wife Serafina, an accomplished harpist, dancer, and channel for a group of angels.

Andrews frequently tours Europe giving seminars, concerts, and attunement sessions.

In 1993, Andrews began recording for The Relaxation Company with Walking on Air;
his 1996 Seven Wheels of Light uses the harp to attune the listener's energy chakras.
In 1989, he wrote "A Harp Full of Stars: The Journey of a Music Healer," available from Golden Harp Press.

end/quote

In the late 1970s, I had the blessing of hearing this man perform in person, in Virginia Beach VA at the A.R.E. in their Meditation Room (3rd floor, in the Library building-- Window wall used to overlook the Atlantic Ocean).
He performed this piece on his harp.

Article mentions Kay Ortman.
I had the chance to meet her in a program I worked at, when I use to draw pastels of client's auras for them. Did them working with music.

That other biography had many more details.

Quote--

Joel Andrews
Joel Andrews was a harpist and metaphysical healer who articulated many new age ideas well before that term existed.
Over the course of a restless, searching life, he married five times, moved all over the US for residencies and teaching jobs, produced harp festivals and workshops, and toured the world.
By his own estimation, he recorded thousands of personalized attunement tapes for his clients to heal past life traumas and other ailments, as well as releasing many albums in the '70s and '80s, some channeled through ancient masters.

In 1989, he published a memoir called Harp Full of Stars that delves into his early life, musical career and healing practice. Andrews passed away in 2019.

Andrews was born in 1928 in Santa Barbara,
raised by an authoritarian step-father whose personality was sharply at odds with the boy's more sensitive temperament.
His family was high-born and wealthy, although Andrews' side of the family had a bohemian streak, best personified by his uncle Gavin's commune in Pismo Beach where young Joel met many artists and philosophers at a young age, including spiritual philosopher Alan Watts.

Andrews' step father Robert Hyde was a real-estate developer who had bought a large tract of land in the hills above Montecito, California that he would later turn into a community called Mountain Drive.
When Joel was a young child, Hyde moved the family there and began building their new house while they all lived temporarily in a cave.

Hyde was a classical music lover and encouraged his kids to take music lessons.
Andrews picked the harp, inspired by a nearby friend, and finally got his own instrument at the age of thirteen.
At the time, Andrews went to private boarding schools where he excelled at sports like tennis and soccer, but he also loved practicing his harp and writing poetry inspired by nature.

By the time he enrolled in college at University of California, Santa Barbara, Andrews had begun playing other instruments including the piano, trumpet, and marimba.
He formed a jazz band there and began to study music theory and composition.
During the summers, he built homes with his father, a skill he would later put to use building his own home after his first marriage.
In 1948, he spent a summer in Maine studying with harp master Carlos Salzedo, and Andrews was very much a disciple of his "Salzedo Method."

In 1951, Andrews enlisted in the Air Force where he remained for four years, playing in the band.
A few years in, he had a vision which he marks as the beginning of his spiritual awakening.
"[I was] existing at the center of an ideal liquid suffused with a pink-violet-beige light," Andrews wrote in his book.
A day later he came down with the flu.

At 25, Andrews married his first wife and moved to Ohio to attend the Cleveland Institute of Music where he studied with Alice Chalifoux, one of Salzedo's most prominent students.
He got a masters degree there and after graduation, moved to Austin to become head of the harp department at the university of Texas.
He stayed there for four years before moving to San Francisco in 1960, a key period in his spiritual and philosophical development.

In San Francisco, Andrews immersed himself in the burgeoning countercultural scene, attending parties and lectures where he reconnected with Alan Watts.
In 1962, Andrews married Alan's daughter, Anne Watts and had two children, Myra and Michael.
Andrews welcomed both of his kids into the world by playing his harp in the labor room at the hospital, accidentally frightening some nearby residents who, upon hearing harp music, had thought they had literally died and gone to heaven.

Andrews' talents, work ethic, and charisma meant there was always plenty of work for him.
In addition to his solo performances at weddings, funerals, and events, he also toured with his lyra chamber groups on the west coast and performed with the San Francisco Opera and Oakland Symphony.
He taught classes at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, gave seminars on the healing properties of sound, organized a harp concert on Mount Tamalpais, and did a small number of film scores.

In 1966 Andrews released his first album, Harp Soundings, a classically influenced work that contains one of his early original compositions, "Sea Suite."
The liner notes make clear that this is no ordinary harp album, but one that aims for a "transcendental quality when the ego is stilled and the artist becomes a channel for the universal forces of light."

After nearly a decade in San Francisco, Andrews left to be a musician in residence at North Carolina State.
In the spring of 1970, he organized a debut concert in New York and practiced incessantly, putting his heart and soul into the program of songs.
Prior to that, he'd always dreamed of being a concert harpist, and he saw the show as a coming out party of sorts.
However, although the show was reviewed well, he had been so consumed with anxiety and stage fright beforehand that he ultimately decided to try a different career path.

In 1971, Andrews left his family for another woman who, he wrote, “shared his spiritual path."
Andrews acknowledged the pain it caused his family and ultimately made some positive changes in the aftermath of the divorce like quitting smoking and drinking, and giving up meat.
A year later, Andrews joined the Paul Winter Consort for a tour, but returned to life in North Carolina after that.
By this time, Andrews was regularly attracting clients who were interested in sound healing, and he offered to help them resolve issues from past lives and other ailments through personalized attunement tapes.

After finishing his residency in North Carolina,
Andrews moved to Virginia Beach,
where he continued his practice and began jamming with some local musicians who formed a band they called the Order of Orpheus.
The group played locally and released one now rare and collectible self-titled album.

Andrews began releasing solo recordings in 1975, starting with 'Locrian Invocation', released on his own Full Circle label.
That album, like many that followed, was dedicated to (and purportedly channeled from) what theosophy adherents would call an “ascended master."
Because the masters were reincarnated many times, they go by multiple names, and Andrews refers to the spirit as both "Pythagorus" and "Kuthumi."
The album was apparently requested by a group of new age hippies in Daytona Beach, Florida and recorded live there.

In 1977, Andrews released his next album 'The Violet Flame', also recorded in Florida and again featuring channeled improvisations.
Although based in Virginia and later Washington DC during this period, Andrews spent most of his time on the road, going back out with the Paul Winter Consort in 1978 and contributing to their 1980 album Soundings.
He still found time for a slate of his own solo releases, and recorded two collaborations with Schawkie Roth and joined Paul Horn on his 'Inside the Magic of Findhorn' in 1983.

Andrews returned to California in 1984, finally settling down in Ben Lomond near Santa Cruz, California.
He occasionally released albums during this period, but he mostly focused on his personalized sound healing and ran a workshop called the Pacific Summer Music Colony.

Andrews passed away in 2019.
