Nansi Richards Jones (14 May 1888 – 21 December 1979) was a Welsh harpist, sometimes known as the “Queen of the Harp”.Richards was born at Pen-y-bont-fawr, Oswestry. An expert on both the triple and pedal harps, she always maintained that the greatest influences on her life were her father, the gypsies who stayed on their farm, and Tom Lloyd, Telynor Ceiriog, who taught her to play the harp.There is now an annual Nansi Richards Harp [Scholarship] competition for young harpists.
