We welcome violinst Charlotte Spruit to perform a solo recital at Royal Holloway, in partnership with the Young Classical Artists Trust. A YCAT artist since 2023, and winner of the First Prize at the Leipzig International Johann Sebastian Bach Competition, Charlotte plays frequently at chamber music festivals across Europe. Her work intertwining music with different art forms led her to first prize at the Goodmesh Concours in 2022.

This event is presented as part of the International Concert Series 2024-25 at Royal Holloway, in collaboration with the Young Classical Artists Trust.

Eugène-Auguste Ysaÿe (1858-1931): Sonata No. 2 in A minor, Op. 27 No. 2
