Programme Note
A star of the future: rising violinist Leia Zhu brings a selection of violin masterworks.
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. Having first picked up a violin at the age of four, she has thrilled audiences across the world ever since. She brings well-known works from the violin canon to St Martin-in-the-Fields, with a recital of Mozart, Grieg, Franck and Sarasate.
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.
