Event Description

In celebration of his seventy-fifth birthday, Elgar Festival Patron Julian Lloyd Webber joins forces with his wife and fellow cellist Jiaxin in a fascinating ‘double-sided’ programme. With a first half of live music exploring the extraordinary reasons why Bach’s sublime Cello Suites remained unperformed for two hundred years, the second half sees Julian embark on a magical musical tour through his career along with unique video clips and a rare chance to quiz both Lloyd Webbers about playing with musical icons Yehudi Menuhin, Stephane Grappelli, Joaquin Rodrigo, Philip Glass, Elton John, Julian’s brother Andrew Lloyd Webber and many more.
