Rebecca Blair's career as a musician and teacher has been both rich and varied. Her musical studies began in the Classical realm with the clarinet and soon expanded to encompass the Celtic harp. In 1996, she graduated with a Masters degree in performance and musicology from the University of Victoria. Since then, she has focused her interest on Celtic music and improvisation on the harp, attending many Celtic harp workshops which include the Dusty Strings Seattle Symposium, the Wells harp workshop, and the Cáirde na Cruite Harp Workshop in Termonfeckin, Ireland. Rebecca regularly gives harp workshops around the lower mainland such as Early Music Vancouver and Place des Arts.

Rebecca has over fifteen years of professional performing experience on the Celtic harp performing around the West Coast, her audiences including the International Bar Association, and the President of Ireland. She has contributed to a number of recordings such as "Orrachan" by Teresa Doyle, and "Nigawe Aski" (Mother Earth) by Sandy Skofield. She is active in the Vancouver folk music scene, performing both solo and with groups such as the trio the Maenads Rebecca keeps a busy schedule of teaching, recording and playing professionally around the lower mainland as well as studying Irish dance.
