One to watch
The British magazine Gramophone featured Lavinia in their “One to watch” (April issue). Have a look!
“There may not be many star harpists in the world, but Lavinia Meijer has as good a chance of becoming one as any. Certainly some of the world’s great orchestras and halls have cottoned on to her talent early, as she appears with the likes of the Royal Concertgebouw and the Israel Philharmonic, while her Carnegie Hall debut came – for a solo concert – a little over a year ago.
She has also attracted the discerning ear of Jared Sacks, the brains behind the record label Channel Classics. He signed her and has produced two albums, the first entitled “Divertissements”, the second (to be reviewed next issue), “Visions”. Of her debut, Gramophone’s reviewer wrote, “the delicate moments of this programme left me breathless… a bewitching recital from first note to last.”
Prizes and praise are coming thick and fast for Meijer. She may yet have to get used to stardom as well.”
