Elizaveta Ivanova & Sanja Bizjak

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.
