Estonian flautist and BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist, Elizaveta Ivanova, has picked up plaudits for both her live performances as a soloist and in chamber ensembles. She is making her Norwich debut in this stunning recital at the Octagon Chapel accompanied by Serbian pianist Sanja Bizjak. Together, they will perform two major sonatas by Poulenc and Reinecke alongside atmospheric miniatures by Debussy and Gaubert.  

Winner of the 77th Concours de Genève, Elizaveta is a 2024 BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist and Associate Principal Flute of Frankfurt Opera and Museum Orchestra. 

Sanja was an international prize-winner from an early age, gaining global attention aged nine with a prize at the Rachmaninoff International Competition. She has toured extensively around the world, and, at the end of last year, she performed with Elizaveta at Wigmore Hall.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for over 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
