Tasmin Little - Cambridge Summer Music Festival 2008
Little St. Mary's Church

The Naked Violin

In January this year Tasmin recorded a CD of the same name on which she recorded three works:

J.S. Bach Partita No.3 in E major for solo violin
Paul Patterson Luslawice Variations Op.50 for violin
Eugène Ysaÿe Sonata No.3 in D minor Ballade

She offered this recording completely free to the general public - anyone who wishes to listen or to have this recording just needed to go to her website and download the tracks. The ‘Naked Violin' in performance includes introductions and performances of these three works and also a question and answer session where the audience will be able to ask Tasmin anything they wish.

An informal and relaxed hour in the company of one of this country's most virtuoso and popular violinists!

A special and unmissable concert!
