    Good for her!
    She was amongst the 12 finalists of the 2022 Queen Elisabeth competition.

    Good for her, though this does really feel like a ‘French’ style appointment… she practically doesn’t have any orchestral experience – either in general or even as section leader… Here’s to hoping it all goes well – successfully holding together a section requires more than just pure musical talent.
