is principal bassoon of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra. She has also worked with orchestras across Europe including the LSO, Budapest Festival Orchestra, BBC Symphony Orchestra and Bayerisches Staatsorchester. She very much enjoys chamber music and has also premiered various works written for her by her brother, Kim, in venues in Germany, UK and Sweden. Her inaugural concert in Liverpool was broadcast on BBC Radio 3 with what the presenter described as a ‘boozy bassoon’ solo in Elgar’s Falstaff. She is particularly proud of this because she is tee-total. When not destroying bassoon reeds, she can be found cycling across Europe, celebrating veganism, and getting up to mischief with her little nephew.
