Throwback Thursday: Priya Mitchell


Off centre photo of a pre-teenage girl, head inclined

This is Priya Mitchell, who lived around the corner and went to my school.

These days she's a bit more glamorous:

Despite my mother confidently telling me that British violin playing consists entirely of Priya and Nigel Kennedy, she is frustratingly difficult to track down. I suspect she is more interested in the music than the publicity. There's a Youtube video of her playing the Dvorak Piano Quintet No. 2 and a bit of stuff about the Oxford Chamber Music Festival but that seems to be it. I think you have to see her live.
