As I slowly began the movement back into freelance work, this collaboration with Kyle Champion became an important milestone.

The Beethoven and Martinu sonatas are virtuoso works for both the cellist and the pianist, and I worked very hard bringing back my piano technique. Working with Kyle is always a joy at All Saints, whether first chair cellist for all our liturgical festivals with orchestra or performing with the choirs as solo cellist.

It was wonderful to move into these new phase of duo collaborators. Kyle and I plan to do more as I focus on such collaborations with singers and instrumentalists in the years ahead.
