MUSIC FOR A SUMMER'S EVENING
Hugh Mackay (cello)
Michael Pandya (piano)
Louth and District Concert Society presents Hugh Mackay and Michael Pandya in recital.
The 2022 Suggia Gift recipient, a Dewar Arts Award winner and former Mozart Gesellschaft Dortmund scholarship holder, Scottish cellist Hugh Mackay is establishing himself as an independently minded young artist drawing inspiration from across musical eras and a broad range of artistic collaborations. His vibrant musical life denotes an eclectic range of performing styles and repertoire, from the inception of the cello to the present day, and he is noted for his inspired and provocative programming. An avid chamber musician, Hugh has collaborated with leading artists such as Lawrence Power and the Doric String Quartet. He made his concerto debut with the Bremer Philharmoniker in 2021 performing Schumann’s Cello Concerto in the Dortmund Konzerthaus and Die Glocke Bremen. He is currently based in London, UK.
