Divine Art is delighted to announce the forthcoming release of a new album of 20th and 21st century works by women composers, performed by cellist Heather Tuach and pianist Yoko Misumi.
“In the Mirror” is a selection of melodious cello and piano music by women composers from the 20th and 21st centuries. The 18 pieces were chosen by cellist Heather Tuach and pianist Yoko Misumi (of the Greenwich Trio) for their mellow, soothing, sonorous and contemplative qualities. Many of the titles, such as Peace, Vigil, Whispered Lullaby,Psalm and Nocturne, express the essence of the music. The collection includes a commission by Liz Dilnot Johnson – the title track ‘In the Mirror’ – and new arrangements for cello and piano by Dobrinka Tabakova and Jessie Montgomery.
Canadian cellist Heather Tuach was until recently a long-standing member of the Fitzwilliam String Quartet. Highlights with the FSQ include concerts at Kings Place, Wigmore Hall and Conway Hall (London), performances at the Ryedale Festival (North Yorkshire), cruises on the Aegean Sea, live broadcasts on BBC Radio 3 ‘In Tune,’ and residencies at the University of St Andrews (Scotland), Cambridge University (England) and Bucknell University (Pennsylvania). Since Heather joined the FSQ, it has toured throughout Britain as well as Canada, USA, Italy, France, Germany, Slovenia, Denmark and South Africa.
Heather pursues a range of interests. She plays in the Roskell Piano Trio. She has appeared as a soloist at the York Late Music Festival and Ryedale Festival (England), the Festival de l’Abbaye du Pin (France) and on Martin Randall Travel’s ‘Bach Journey’ (Germany). Heather was the soloist in Shostakovich’s Cello Concerto No. 2 with the Academy of St. Olave’s Orchestra (York) and Haydn’s Cello Concerto No. 1 with the Newfoundland Symphony Orchestra. In her home province of Newfoundland, she has given recitals at the Tuckamore Music Festival and Memorial University of Newfoundland (St. John’s) and performed in numerous concerts in her hometown of Corner Brook, where she is the artistic director of the Wintertide Music Festival. www.wintertidefestival.com. She has previously featured in two highly-acclaimed albums for Divine Art and Métier {see below}.
Heather first studied cello at Memorial University of Newfoundland. She then attended McGill University (Montréal), where she was awarded a Master of Music. Following this, she went on to study for a year at the International Menuhin Music Academy (Switzerland). Finally, she attended Stony Brook University (New York), where she was awarded a Doctorate in Musical Arts in 2009. Her cello professors have included Colin Carr, Moray Welsh and Antonio Lysy and chamber music coaches have included Marcel Saint-Cyr and the members of the Emerson Quartet. Heather’s cello was made by the Yorkshire luthier Roger Hansell in 1993.
Born in Kyoto to a musical family, Yoko Misumi started piano lessons at a very young age showing even then her talent and musicianship. At age 14 she was already a prize-winner of the Kyoto Piano Competition. After graduating from Kyoto Music High School, she moved to London to continue her studies with Nina Sereda and Martino Tirimo. Yoko has appeared as a soloist with conductors such as James Judd and Barry Wordsworth. She gave performances in Kyoto Concert Hall, Amsterdam Concertgebouw, St. Martin-in-the-Fields, Wigmore Hall, Kings Place and Adrian Boult Hall. She has participated in master classes with Stephen Kovacevich, Menahem Pressler, Bernard Greenhouse, Dietrich Banhoeffer, Neal Larrabee, Elisabeth Dvorak-Weissmar, Kiri Te Kanawa, Ralph Kirshbaum, Rivka Golani, William Aide, Norma Fischer and Dmitri Alexeev.

Yoko is also the pianist in the Greenwich Trio; she is now in demand as a chamber musician and an accompanist, having performed in Japan, New Zealand, USA and Europe.
