Pippa Reid-Foster Harpist

Early morning practice before heading into school. Mizzy is helping me learn one of the iconic Philip Glass pieces, maybe shouldn’t have given myself the ambitious task of learning 20 pages of music in 3 day’s 🎶 I do love a challenge, but I won’t be doing all the repeats as it’s 14 minutes long!! This, along with many other pieces of contemporary, traditional and my new works will be performed at my now (I think) SOLD OUT concert at the @mackintoshclub in Helensburgh tomorrow...! I’m excited, are you. . . . . . #concert #livemusic #musicianlife #minimalism #minimalistmusic #contemporaryharp #harpistscotland #composition #philipglass #ludovicoeinaudi #composition #harpcolumn #harp #gigging #charlesrenniemackintosh #scottishmusician #catsofinstagram

Lovely to be back playing at the #robertlouisstevenson house in #Edinburgh last night performing for a private #concert. I am so grateful to be asked to play for these concert which I do 3/4 of each year. It’s a private German tour company and they are so appreciative of music, this is what makes performing so great, the immediate feed back you get from the audience full of emotion and joy ✔️ my mission is complete. Plus, they ❤️ my new #minimalist ideas!! Very late night hom...e, but so so worth it 🎶 . . . . #livemusic #musician #newmusic #selfemployed #musiciansofinstagram #harp #harpistscotland #joy #happy #music #concert #scotland #starfishharps #inspire #behappy @ Home of Robert Louis Stevenson
