French-Korean violinist, Irène Duval, is firmly establishing herself as a compelling and versatile performer, with a strong interest in combining little-known works with works central to the repertoire. She was a prize-winner at the 2021 Young Classical Artists Trust International Auditions, and has been praised for her “mastery of phrasing and of the dramatic dimension…” (Diapason) and her “…poised, fearless energy, chamber intelligence and musical finesse…” (Charlotte Gardner, DSC Audio)
Highlights of her recent performances include her first performances in the US at the Rockport Music Festival and at the 92nd Street Y in New York City, her debut with the Philharmonia Orchestra at the first symphonic concert by an international orchestra in Mauritius, her first appearance at the Verbier Festival playing with Janine Jansen, a Debussy concert with Jean-Efflam Bavouzet at Wigmore Hall, and her Australian debut at the Bendigo Chamber Music Festival.
Hailed as “one of the most thoughtful and sensitive of British pianists” (The Times), Mishka Rushdie Momen captivates audiences with her refined and expressive playing. Her wide repertoire focuses on Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, and Schumann, whilst reaching back to Gibbons and Rameau.
Programme includes: Beethoven: Spring Sonata; Brahms: Violin Sonata 1 in G Major; Clemence Grandval: Deux Pieces No.1; Schubert: Fantasy
