Playing in a bubble has been around a little while now, but it seems to be getting more common place.  picture above of harpist Shelley Frost performing in a bubble. Looks lovely doesn't it? and here's a video of her getting into the bubble and another, Canadian harpist Elena playing in Dubai, and an agency in the UK is now offering it too PROS more job and work opportunities for musicians? CONS
I'm all for there being more work for musicians, really doesn't matter where or what as long as it's work, and good luck to the lovely ladies playing harp in the bubbles. I don't have an issue with playing an electric lever harp in a bubble, because at least then you have full control of the harp and levers standing up. Likewise playing a violin or saxophone is fine, because their playing is not restricted by standing up. But I do find it very odd to play an instrument fundamentally designed to only be played sitting down - in a standing up position - when you can't change the PEDALS standing up!!!! |
