Lisa Friend Trio

Lisa Friend (flute) has performed as a soloist with the Philharmonia Orchestra, Mozarteumorchester Salzburg, City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, Virtuosi Pragenses, Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra, and, at The London Palladium with the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra. She has toured throughout Europe, the USA and Asia and has been broadcast on radio stations around the world including Classic FM, Scala Radio, BBC Radio 3, BBC Radio 2, BBC London, RTE Lyric FM, WQXR Classical Radio-New York and with the Brodsky Quartet live in the Classic FM Studios and on BBC One TV ‘The Andrew Marr Show’.

Lisa has recently released another album ‘An American Affair’ (Chandos Records) which has been reviewed by The Gramophone in glowing terms: “Friend’s tone, pure and clear, allied to her discerningly handled virtuosity makes for a performance to remember.” In this evening’s programme performed with her trio (Martin Radford (cello) and Mark Kinkaid (piano)) she includes works from this album. Additionally, Lisa’s intimate connection with her audience and performance space was very evident when she performed in Bradfield in 2024 and has carefully crafted a new programme of classical and filmic works that should appeal to both.
