Her appearances include leading venues such as Wigmore Hall, Purcell Room, St Martin-in-the-Fields, St John’s Smith Square, Glasgow City Halls, Manchester Bridgewater Hall, and the Birmingham Symphony and Town Halls. In 2019, she released her debut album, Darkness Illuminated, featuring works by Alexander Scriabin and Alexei Stanchinsky.
