Info on the performers and the programme below
St Edward's Coffee Concerts are charity concerts. We are very grateful to the wonderful professional standard musicians who give of their time and amazing talent to raise money for charity. This year we will be raising money for and awareness of 'Making Music Changing Lives'
Making Music Changing Lives - MMCL - is a music-education charity developing the skills of the young people of Ely and Caerau in Cardiff, by providing musical instruments, very low-cost tuition from experienced teachers, and opportunities to play chamber music and in an orchestra. MMCL has been running for over 16 years and is entirely self-funded, relying on individual donations and grants from trusts and foundations; every contribution makes a difference. The Board of Trustees is extremely grateful to the St Edward's coffee concert series for supporting MMCL this year. Further donations to MMCL will be gratefully received
Vanda Koseda
Vanda Koseda trained at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama and performs widely as a soloist and accompanist. Her enthusiasm for contemporary music led to a recital in London for The Composer's Guild of Great Britain, featuring Twelve Variations on a Polish Dance Melody, written for her by Welsh composer David Nevens.
Passionate about the music of Latin America, she is preparing for a third appearance at the El Sueno festival in mid Wales.
