‘Continually reaching beyond the classical genre, the top-class chamber musician has worked with exceptional World music artists throughout her career. She is highly sought after for her distinctive sound, expression and willingness to explore. In Dialogues, Su-a showcases the highlights and inspirations of her non-classical career, and brings her own unique voice to the fore.

Dialogues is a series of musical conversations with 15 of her all-time favourite folk musicians from home and abroad(one being her new hubbie Hamish Napier!). Each piece is an intimate duet that takes their musical relationship to the next level. Each collaborator has carefully chosen a tune or song that is close to home and heart, and one that also celebrates their strong connection with Su-a over the years. Many are original compositions, written especially for the album and dedicated to her, while others are fresh arrangements of traditional tunes.

For almost 30 years, the South Korean-born cellist Su-a Lee has been a permanent fixture among the ranks of the Scottish Chamber Orchestra. Her engaging smile, that mischievous fleck of colour she frequently adds to her hair, and in other fields her notable virtuosity on the musical saw with the unorthodox mixed-genre ensemble Mr McFall’s Chamber, all suggest a musician with a will of her own who cherishes the limelight.

Dialogues was physical released on 2^nd Dec , you will be able to download it on all major digital platforms on Fri 20^th Jan 2023
