On 21st Sept 2016, Leia Zhu made her debut at the Barbican Centre (London) with LSSO under the baton of Peter Ash. The Sibelius Humoresque is part of a musical fairy tale “The Minpins“ based on Roald Dahl's last story. Reviewed by Edward Clark, distinguished music critic and President of the International Sibelius Society -- ‘The astonishing virtuosity of nine-year-old Leia Zhu who threw off Sibelius’s Humoresque Op 87, no 2 with a speed and genuine sense of feeling rivalled, in my experience only by the iconic recording of Aaron Rosand. The audience was left gasping in admiration giving this delightful soloist a huge ovation’ Behind the scene video Professional profile: Website: Facebook: Also on: Twitter: Instagram:
