It is my great pleasure to cross over the pond to the UK for today’s episode and feature the lovely Tasmin Little.
Tasmin has performed on every continent in some of the most prestigious venues of the world, including Carnegie Hall, Musikverein, Concertgebouw, Philharmonie Berlin, Vienna Konzerthaus, South Bank Centre, Barbican Centre and Royal Albert Hall, Lincoln Center and Suntory Hall.
Her multi-award winning and varied career encompasses international concerto and recital performances, master classes, workshops and community outreach work. Tasmin's discography and performance schedule reflect her wide-ranging repertoire and she has given numerous World Premiere performances. Right now she is also raising money to help distressed musicians through Help Musicians UK, offering custom e-greetings; click here for more about that.
There is so much I could say about Tasmin, not only is she a wonderful fiddle player but also a very warm, fun and generous person as you will soon see.

What a wonderful and delicious presentation. Thank you, Tasmin. I’m a big Delius fan, and so double thanks for your beautiful recordings of
the sonatas and concerto. And I recommend your two-part video on YouTube called Delius The Lost Child, about his child in Florida whom he was separated from.
