This isn’t your typical classical concert. It’s a one-hour experience where music, words, and emotions come together in a very personal way.

On stage is a cellist and composer who doesn’t just play — she speaks to the audience, sharing the stories behind each piece and explaining why this music matters to her. As she likes to say:

"There’s nothing better than someone explaining things they really know."

You’ll hear classical solo works — including music by J.S. Bach — alongside her own compositions from her new album, Preludes. Each piece has its own story, and she guides you through them with honesty and warmth.

It’s a different kind of concert: no formalities, no wall between performer and audience. Just music, words, and a moment to really listen.

As critic Simon Peters said:

"One of the most inspiring and genuine musician of her generation."
