Path to the Moon: Laura van der Heijden at Wigmore Hall
This afternoon cellist Laura van der Heijden makes a welcome return to the stage of the Wigmore Hall, to which she is no stranger. Together with pianist Jâms Coleman the duo perform their inventively curated programme, ‘Path to the Moon’. Drawing inspiration from the lunar the line-up features works by Fauré, Price, and Korngold, and was released as an album by Chandos Records earlier this year.
Later this season Laura and Jâms take the same programme to the Royal Holloway International Concert Series and The Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama and in January 2025 Laura looks forward to joining the BBC National Orchestra of Wales and conductor Anthony Hermus for Martinů’s Cello Concerto No. 1.
Today’s concert will be broadcast live at 13:00 on BBC Radio 3 and available to stream on BBC Sounds.
