World renowned horse trainer Heath Harris had a vision, to combine the magestic beauty of one of his liberty horses with the soulful and rich tones of the violin and bring them together in a stunning choreographed dance.
Finding an internationally renowned violinist who not only had a passion for horses but was fearless underneath a rearing horse proved to be difficult.
Six years later coincidence would see his vision realised for a world first in entertainment when he crossed paths with Sarah Moir, who was performing at Equitana with the String Angels.
