LiLa / Julia Hamos
Works by Johannes Brahms, Leoš Janáček and Bohuslav Martinů – Teatime Classics
At the finale of the Teatime Classics series, cellist LiLa presents works by Johannes Brahms, Leoš Janáček and Bohuslav Martinů. The 21-year-old Chinese musician is accompanied by the American-Hungarian pianist Julia Hamos, a fellow student at the Kronberg Academy.
LiLa had her first music lesson on the piano at the age of four, before she switched to the cello three years later. In 2016 she enrolled at New York’s Juilliard School as a pre-college student. Awarded many prizes at international competitions, she became the youngest prize-winner at the 2014 International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow. LiLa has already appeared at the Verbier Festival, and has appeared with various orchestras, among them the Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra.
Pianist Julia Hamos is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Music in London and of the Mannes College of Music in New York. Since 2019 she himself been continuing her studies at the Barenboim-Said Academy, where her teacher is Sir András Schiff. Ms Hamos has won international awards and scholarships, and is in demand both as a soloist and a chamber musician. The versatile artist also cooperates closely with other fields of art such as dance and theatre.
