Julia Hwang

Returned a couple hours ago from another excellent Sinfonia concert at St Paul's church. We are extremely fortunate to have such a dedicated young orchestra based in Deptford! The final work - an energetic rendering of Beethoven's Fifth - is still resounding around my head, however the evening belonged to young Julia Hwang. Making her London debut the 12 year old performed Mozart's Violin Concerto No.3 to rousing acclaim, then treated us to an additional item - the popular Ladies in Lavender theme by Nigel Hess, incidentally a film I only got round to watching this October. The next concert featuring St.Paul's Strings is on Friday 16 January at 7.30.

Hi SE8KER, thanks for dropping by my blog. Yours looks great, too.

Especially like the photographic walks, with spirit/ psychogeography...

Wonderful to read about classical music: can you recommend any other cm blogs? I've been swamped by the Christmas music played since late November in Starbucks. My brain cells are like Bing Crosby on a loop...
