Catrin Finch at Pittville Pump Room

15 February 2009, Pittville Pump Room

Virtuosic Harpist Catrin Finch, will be performing at the wonderful Pitville Pump Room in Cheltenham on 4pm February 15th 2009. The internationally acclaimed former Royal Harpist will be starting her UK tour in Cambridge to promote her latest CD release on Deutsche Grammophon / Universal - JS Bach's "Goldberg Variations". (Released on January 26th 2009).

Bach's Goldberg Variations represents a formidable challenge even for keyboard players, and has never been played previously on the harp. This is the challenge Catrin set herself in 2007, to transcribe the piece for harp, record it, and provide for the world a new arrangement that will come to occupy a respected place in the harp repertoire.
