Three of Britain’s leading musicians come together for this evening’s special concert on the theme of Homecoming, culminating in an arrangement of Schubert’s sublime masterpiece Shepherd on the Rock.Ruby Hughes is a former BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist, holds a Borletti-Buitoni Trust Award and was shortlisted for a 2014 Royal Philharmonic Society Music Award. Through her blossoming catalogue of recordings and lovingly curated performances, she has become known for her interpretations of the music of the baroque and 20th and 21st Century.
British-American violinist Tamsin Waley-Cohen is known for her visceral and deeply expressive performances in repertoire spanning six centuries. With musical storytelling central to her approach, she has gained a reputation for poetic performances that go straight to the heart.
