Sponsored by Furley Page

The Winter Fairy

Elodie Chousmer-Howelles violin, Julian Chan piano

Former BBC Young Musician string finalist, Elodie, brings a seasonal programme including works by Stravinsky, Prokofiev and Florence Price.

Elodie made her debut as soloist with The BBC Singers in 2019 in an arrangement of Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending for solo violin and mixed choir.

In February 2024, Elodie performed as part of the Donne Foundation’s ‘Let Her Music Play’ campaign, which has made history as the world’s longest live streamed concert performing works by female and nonbinary composers. Elodie currently performs regularly with duo partner Stella Lorenz.

2023 saw Elodie performances with Ed Sheeran, Little Simz, Joan Armatrading, Ellie Goulding, Noel Gallagher, and concluded with a UK Tour in December with classical guitarist Alexandra Whittingham.

As a member of the Chineke! Orchestra, Elodie led the Chineke! Quartet at the 2020 Booker Prize Ceremony, performed at the 2022 Paris Louis Vuitton fashion show, and has been involved in BBC Proms performances.
