It
is unusual for a musician who works at the level of an orchestra
like the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields to be not only an expert cellist,
but also a flautist, pianist, double-bass player and jazz- musician! In
her early career she toured with John Cleese etc. in the (1960's) Cambridge
Footlights, and, also in Cambridge, she was cello tutor to His Royal Highness
the Prince of Wales. She tours Britain as a soloist as well as performing
with a number of ensembles, including the Dartington Trio and the Ambache
Ensemble, and has made many recordings. She is a professor at London's
Trinity College of Music..
