Weekend events update

Since I did my 1 December events post, I’ve received a couple of updates which are now reflected in that post.

First, I’ve received confirmation of the exhibition / puppet show on Saturday by Magenta Tan (née 진경신) at the Korean Register Office in New Malden this Saturday and Sunday (8/9 Dec). The show is entitled “Woven Inspiration” (flyer left).

Second, on Sunday afternoon (9 December) 17-year-old double bass virtuoso Ha Young Jung¹ will be participating in a masterclass with Ida Haendel at the Wigmore Hall, and also will be performing in the evening recital.

1. Q: What does this Korean teenage virtuoso have in common with the middle-aged LKL blogmeister? A: We were both music scholars at the same school in Bristol. OK, I was only an exhibitioner, but maybe, Shin Jeong-ah style, I might be permitted a bit of qualification-inflation [↩]
