Programme Note
Lauded for her musical maturity, expressive interpretations and impressive technical ability, 15 year-old British violinist Leia Zhu is recognised as a star of the future. She brings well-known works from the violin canon to St Martin-in-the-Fields, with a recital of Mozart, Grieg, Franck and Saraste.
Appointed Artist-in-Residence with the London Mozart Players in October 2021, Leia appears again in St Martin-in-the-Fields in July, performing Mozart’s Violin Concerto No.5 with the orchestra. Two unmissable opportunities to see one of the future stars of the violin.
Leia has created an NFT artwork of the ticket buddle. She will also be available on the Live Chat feed during the concert.
The concert was recorded at St Martin-in-the-Fields on 7 June 2022.
This concert is part of the HP Futures concert series. A collaboration with St Martin-in-the-Fields, showcasing outstanding artists to audiences at the iconic London venue.
