We are delighted to welcome Roger Low back to the Library, following his sold out concert for us last year. The acoustics of the Library simply love the sound of the cello, so Roger playing with his long term partner on the piano Scott Faigen will be simply gorgeous!

Roger Low enjoyed a long career as as principal cello in the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino Orchestra under the direction of Zubin Mehta and many other world class conductors.  In parallel he has had a prestigious career as a soloist.
