St Mary le Strand is a stunning and intimate venue, the perfect setting for this musical experience. There are also many bars and restaurants nearby to complete your evening.
Katherine Jenkinson has performed as recitalist and concerto soloist throughout Europe, in Africa, Asia and the USA. In contemporary music, she has worked closely with composers Arvo Pärt, Oliver Davis, Anthony Payne, Richard Allain and Thomas Hyde; in 2018 Oliver Davis invited Katherine to record his cello concerto Morpheus with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, an album which subsequently became a Classic FM and iTunes hit.
Pianist Warren Mailley-Smith has developed a large following across the UK, with audiences warming to his outstanding pianism, effortless technique and charismatic charm. He made waves in the music world in 2015 through his extraordinary achievement of performing the complete solo works of Chopin from memory. His career has taken him all over the world, with solo performances in Australia, Europe and tours in China and the USA.
