Homage to Tortelier: Corinne Morris

Performers Corinne Morris (cello) and Nico de Villiers (piano) perform at The Forge in London on Tuesday 8th April at 7:30pm.

Celebrating the centenary of legendary French cellist Paul Tortelier, the 150th anniversary of Strauss, and their artistic collaboration, Corinne Morris will be performing a programme of lesser-known cello greats close to her heart, including a UK premiere of Borenstein’s Soliloquy.

Morris, who was mentored by Tortelier himself and was taught by his disciple Raphael Sommer, is celebrating her UK-comeback after serious injury.

This concert is very generously being sponsored by Hope & Chance, and proceeds will be going towards helping disabled children in the Chernobyl area.
