Laura van der Heijden and Friends

John Toal introduces the second of four recitals featuring British cellist Laura van der Heijden and friends. They were recorded in St. Mark’s Church Dundela in east Belfast: the church in which CS Lewis was baptised and where his grandfather was rector.

Laura won the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition in 2012 and is well-known for her collaborative music-making. Today she’s joined by the French pianist Yannick Rafalimanana, the British-German violinist Max Bailie and her colleagues in the Redon Quartet for performances of works by Mozart, Debussy and women composers spanning centuries and nationalities – Elisabeth de La Guerre, Louise Talma and Nadia Boulanger.
