Gramophone Young Artist of the Year, Stella Chen, is widely acclaimed as one of the most exciting new violinists on the international stage. She opens her Ryedale residency with a programme that culminates in a monumental work by Schubert that she describes as her single favourite work of art. ‘It’s my safe haven’ she says, ‘a world with the most dangerous of perils, the darkest of pains, most exuberant happiness, and the most beautiful optimism, all in under a half-hour.’

‘phenomenal maturity … fresh and spontaneous, yet emotionally profound’ The Jerusalem Post
