Today’s nudge in the direction of an online concerts brings us to Living Room Live.
This is an exciting new initiative from a group of musicians keen to make a difference to those in isolation, led by violinist Tamsin Waley-Cohen and her composer sister Freya, together with pianist George Fu, consultant Daniel Ross and viola player Ann Beilby.
Living Room Live started just two months back but is already hosting three concerts a week through Facebook live, each concert starting at 6pm BST.
This week you can catch Zoë Martlew‘s cabaret alter-ego Nefari on Monday 18 May, then up and coming cellist Laura van der Heijden playing Bach‘s wonderful Solo Cello Suite no.4 on Wednesday 20 May. Meanwhile Friday’s concert, from violinist Amalia Hall, will feature the virtuosity of Ysaÿe, channelled through two sonatas for solo violin.
All concerts can be viewed in real time and in catch-up mode through Living Room Live’s Facebook page here
