Elizaveta Lessoun is the recipient of a three-year loan of Susanne Beer's Lockey Hill cello (c.1780). It is the cello that Susanne played on while she was co-principal cellist of the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Elizaveta is from Belarus and she studies with Melissa Phelps at the Royal College of Music in London. Elizaveta performed on this cello at Conway Hall Sunday Concerts in November 2020. 

The Foundation is looking to add to its collection. Please be in touch if you have a cello or bow gathering dust. We loan instruments and bows to talented young cellists.  If you would like to make a monetary donation to The Susanne Beer Cello Corner Foundation, please click the link below or feel free to get in touch.
