Violinist Ella Hodgson-Laws and pianist Catherine Laws bring Inspirations & Contrasts to York Late Music today

Ella Hodgson-Laws and Catherine Laws: York Late Music programme of Inspirations & Contrasts

THE mother-and-daughter duo of young violinist Ella Hodgson-Laws and pianist Catherine Laws present a programme of Inspirations & Contrasts at the Unitarian Chapel, St Saviourgate, York, for York Late Music this afternoon.

The lush intensity of Amy Beach’s Romance Op. 23 is drawn together with the driving dance rhythms and timbral invention of new pieces by York composers and lyrically reflective music by Lili Boulanger (Nocturne) and Jessie Montgomery (Peace).

The 1pm to 2pm programme includes premieres of a new commission from young composer Billy Ainsworth, Attention To Detail, and a newly completed Sonata for Violin and Piano by York-based Chilean composer Carlos Zamora. Tim Brooks’s Three Dances for Violin and Piano and Tina Davidson’s Bar None will be performed too. Tickets are on sale at latemusic.org and on the door.
