Biography

Saffron Walden pianist Siu Chui Li and her violinist husband Alex Redington are Artistic Directors of the Linton Concert Series.  They recently invited several friends to join them in forming a flexible chamber cooperative which they named the Vela Ensemble.  Their original Stansted debut had to be postponed, but we look forward to hearing them at last in March, when Siu and Alex will form a piano trio with American cellist Bartholemew La Follette.
