Bio
String player Patsy Reid is from Knapp in Perthshire and aged 26, is a full time musician based in Perth. In 2004, Patsy gained a 1st Class Honours Degree from Strathclyde University and continued her studies at the Royal Northern College of Music. After two years in Manchester, Patsy returned to Scotland with a Post Graduate Certificate in Education with Specialist String Teaching and a Post Graduate Diploma in Violin Performance. As a member of the popular folk band Breabach, the twice Glenfiddich Champion performs regularly throughout the UK and further afield. In 2007 and 2008, Breabach were nominated for Best Scottish Folk band in the Scots Trad Music Awards and are due to release their second album The Desperate Battle of the Birds at the end of this month. In recent years, Patsy has turned her hand to composition, resulting in a number of well-received commissions for Celtic Connections. In 2008, her ‘New Voices’ commission Bridging the Gap was hailed a great success, resulting in the release of a live album on Vertical Records. In 2009, Bridging the Gap was selected and re-orchestrated as the finale of the Homecoming Suite, where it was performed in Glasgow Royal Concert Hall by a select group of traditional musicians, the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and world-renowned saxophonist Branford Marsalis.
