Cello recitals are very rare events in Victoria Concert Hall. Here is one you will not want to miss. Australian Chinese cellist Qin Li-Wei partners with British pianist Kathryn Stott for a splendid duo-recital, which also marks Stott's final concert tour, after a stellar 45-year performing career.
Veteran concertgoers with long memories will fondly remember Stott opening the Singapore International Piano Festival with its very first recital in 1994. (Earlier, she had partnered Yo-Yo Ma for his Singapore debut in 1993). In that same year, the 18-year-old Qin Li-Wei made his Singapore debut with Dvorak's Cello Concerto partnered by the Singapore Symphony Orchestra. All those concerts took place in Victoria Concert Hall.
