Award winning young cellist Charlotte Walker is looking forward to performing with Sally Halsey, pianist, at St Catherine’s Church, Ventnor on Thursday 5th July at 7.30pm.
In a wonderful programme in the light and airy St Catherine’s, Charlotte will play Bach’s D minor Suite for solo cello no. 2, and three other major works for cello and piano by Martinu, Prokofiev and Schumann with Sally.
Sally Halsey
Sally, who grew up in Bonchurch, and was awarded the inaugural West Wight Arts Bursary, attended Medina High School and Peter Symonds Sixth Form College in Winchester before going to music college in London.
Her summer work includes being the official accompanist for the Aboyne Cello Festival summer in Scotland (during which she will perform with many cellists including Rebecca Gilliver, principal cellist of the London Symphony Orchestra) and ‘Flutes in Tuscany’ Summer School (which includes a concert with world renowned flautist Wissam Boustany).
