LSO St Luke's Artist Focus Series (3/4)

Cellist Laura van der Heijden and Jams Coleman perform music by Kodaly, Janacek and Beethoven. Recorded in June at LSO St Luke's in London,

Ian Skelly continues the week of four Lunchtime Concerts recorded at LSO St Luke's in June, each showcasing some exceptional British musicians. Today the young soulful cellist Laura van der Heijden and pianist Jams Coleman give a recital of music starting with a Hungarian flavour in Kodaly's Sonatina. The young duo play Janacek's colourfully descriptive work, Poh谩dka - Fairy Tale - inspired by various fairy tales surrounding Tsar Berendey, his son Ivan and Kaschei, King of the Underworld.
Their concert ends with Beethoven's first cello sonata, full of youthful energy and which the young duo clearly relish in performing.
