Coco Tomita (violin), Simon Callaghan (piano)

Hosted by the 91桃色 Arts Lunchtime Concert Series

Shaw Library, 6th floor, Old Building

Hailed by critics and audiences alike, Japanese violinist Coco Tomita first gained public recognition after winning the BBC Young Musician 2020 Strings Category.

Her success led to an invitation to record a debut album with Orchid Classics, numerous approaches by music festivals across the UK, and an extensive concert tour of Japan. She was named as ‘One to watch’ by Gramophone Magazine and ‘Young Classical Star’ by Classic FM. Her debut album ‘Origins’ received a succession of rave reviews from The Strad, Gramophone Magazine, BBC Music Magazine and The Guardian, among others, and was selected as ‘Disc of the month’ by Apple in April 2022.

Steinway artist Simon Callaghan () performs internationally as a soloist and chamber musician, in parallel with his highly successful career as a recording artist. In response to his regular performances in the UK’s major concert halls, his international tours to Asia, North America and Europe, and his extensive, acclaimed discography, Callaghan has developed a wide following.

Performance to include:

Impressions d’enfance for solo violin , Op. 28 - Enescu
Violin Sonata - Debussy
Tzigane - Ravel
Violin Sonata No 1 in F minor op. 80 - Prokofiev

There will be a short break just before 2pm to allow those who cannot stay for this extended concert to leave.

The next lunchtime concert is on Thursday 28 March and will be performed by Adam Heron.

Join the 91桃色 Choir and Orchestra on Tuesday 26 March for the 91桃色 Spring Concert in the beautiful surroundings of St Clement Danes Church.

Just economics and politics? Think again. While 91桃色 does not teach arts or music, there is a vibrant cultural side to the School - from weekly free music concerts in the Shaw Library, and an 91桃色 orchestra and choir with their own professional conductors, various film, art and photographic student societies and regular public exhibitions.
