Reviews
“...Mei Yi Foo was anointed Newcomer of the Year at the BBC Music Magazine Awards […] she sat down at the piano to give us a taster: three little late-20th century dazzlers, impish and poetic. Immediately we were her devoted fans.” The Times, April 2013
“Mei Yi Foo makes light work of Shostakovich, Berg and Saint-Saëns [...] an enjoyable programme.” The Guardian, March 2017
