"Harpist Bridget Kibbey made it seem as though
her instrument was waiting all its life to explode
with the gorgeous colors and energetic figures
she was getting from it."- New York Times
Winner, 2007 Concert Artists Guild Competition
Bridgets 2008-2009 season highlights include a Weill Hall Recital at Carnegie Hall,
concerto appearances with the Tallahassee Symphony, the American premier of Sebastian
Currier's Broken Minuets for Harp and Strings, the New York premier of Elliott Carter's
Mosaic in Carnegie Hall's Zankel Hall, performances of Osvaldo Golijov's Ayre with
Dawn Upshaw, and solo recitals in Chicago, Philadelphia, and New York.
Ms. Kibbey has been featured as soloist with the Juilliard Symphony, Israel Youth
Philharmonic, and the Eastern Philharmonic Orchestra. As an orchestral harpist she
has appeared with the New York Philharmonic, Boston Symphony, Metropolitan Opera
Orchestra, Orchestra of St. Luke's, and the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra. She was one
of a hand-selected group of emerging artists to perform in the Zankel Band for the
inaugural concert in Carnegie's Zankel Hall, under the direction of John Adams.
Bridget Kibbey recently self-released a solo album entitled Love is Come Again, named
one of 2007's Top Ten Albums by Time Out New York. She also joined soprano Dawn
Upshaw in recording Luciano Berio's Folk Songs and Osvaldo Golijov's Ayre for Deutsche Grammophon. Ms. Kibbey's solo performances
have been broadcast on NPR's Performance Today and WQXR
