Winter Strings & Starlight: A Festive Celebration of Harp Music

Helensburgh harpist and composer Pippa Reid-Foster is inviting local audiences to share in a little festive magic this December, as she brings her Christmas concert, Winter Strings & Starlight, home to Helensburgh as part of a five-date tour across Scotland.

Taking place at St Michael & All Angels Episcopal Church on Friday 18th December at 7.30pm, the one-hour recital will offer a festive evening of beautiful harp music, combining much-loved Christmas carols and traditional melodies with contemporary festive favourites. Entry is free, with donations welcome on the door.

With more than 15 years of experience performing at weddings, events and concerts, Pippa has developed a distinctive style that blends traditional Celtic melodies with contemporary, minimalist and neo-classical influences. Her music challenges the perception of the harp as an instrument reserved for classical concerts, exploring its versatility through modern arrangements, familiar favourites and atmospheric soundscapes.

Donations on the door.
