Christmas Concert<\/strong>
\nChristina and Marcus are thrilled to be able to share their Christmas 2020 concert from the magnificent Caird Hall Dundee. It was a privilege to be able to play the hall’s world-class new Steinway piano. It’s always thrilling to walk onto the Caird Hall stage, but to do so during this year of global shutdown was a particular joy.<\/div>\n
The concert went live on YouTube on Sunday 13th December.  Due to the Kreisler being in copyright it could only remain available to view until 31st December. A version without the Kreisler can be viewed here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
\n

The programme included Kreisler, J. S. Bach, Vivaldi’s “Winter” from “The Four Seasons, Beethoven, Liszt, Schumann, some Scottish tunes, and a Christmas Carol medley arranged by Marcus and featuring our little girl.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

UPDATE<\/strong>
\nHeartfelt thanks to all who tuned in for our concert last week. We are so touched by the lovely messages we have received from near and far. I will collate them soon. In the meantime, here are 2 of them. “Your recital last Sunday was an absolute joy and such a symbol of hope in these difficult times”<\/em>                                           “Thank you so much for treating us to this wonderful music. It is wonderful to be able to hear such a professional performance and a real tonic in a frightening time”<\/em>A lovely article in The Dundee Courier about the concert:<\/strong><\/a>At this time of isolation and lockdown, we all need some comfort, and a sense of connection. Please keep sending messages, feedback and questions!Due to Covid19, concert halls all over the world are shutting down.
\nChristina Lawrie and her violinist husband Marcus Barcham-Stevens (Scottish Chamber Orchestra Principal 2nd Violin, Co-leader, Britten Sinfonia) want to keep the music going, and will broadcast regular concert of violin and piano music from their living room.<\/div>\n
