Scholarship news – Elodie

26th March 2019

Elodie recently had a fantastic experience playing a little-known modern violin concerto by the Latvian composer Peteris Vasks called ‘Distant Light’ with Edinburgh University’s String Orchestra!

She said “It was my first time playing a full concerto with orchestra and all of the musicians were so warm and lovely to play with. Their concert hall was also quite intimate and had a great acoustic for strings! I would say that it’s the highlight of my year so far and I really hope to get more opportunities to play the concerto with orchestras in future as it deserves to be heard more regularly!”

Her next concert will be on May 20th for the Calleva Trust at the Royal Academy.
