Artist residency and recital with Leia Zhu

Celebrated for her exceptional musical maturity, profound expressive interpretations, and remarkable technical prowess, Leia Zhu is a 17-year-old violin prodigy who has been hailed as ‘one of the most exciting young violinists of her generation’. She has enthralled audiences across the world since her debut at the age of four in her home city Newcastle upon Tyne. This recital comes after a week-long residency working with some of the UAE's most talented young musicians, and is an unmissable opportunity to see this exceptional master performing with her students, live in Abu Dhabi. The performance is free and open to the public but registration is essential.
