World-renowned violinist, alumna Laure Chan meets FHS Music Scholars

Alumna Laure Chan returned to FHS on Monday 30th October to enjoy lunch in the Head’s office with a selected group of music scholars. The girls took the opportunity to speak with Laure about her career to date and to ask her questions, discovering how she became a world-renowned violinist and a prolific composer and recording artist. They drew a huge amount of inspiration from Laure’s success. It was an absolute pleasure to welcome Laure back to FHS and to also show her our new state of the art sixth form centre. Laure hopes to return again soon to attend a concert and has also kindly agreed to run a workshop for violinists, if her schedule allows.
 
Laure attended Francis Holland from 2006-2009 as a music scholar and made her first return to School to perform an extraordinary violin recital at September’s Quondam Fundraising concert.
