Annette Young and Sue-Ellen Paulsen, Principal Cello, Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra

Sue-Ellen Paulsen, Principal Cello of the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra will launch A Distant Prospect by Annette Young this Tuesday 12 February 2012 at 5:30pm at The Hobart Bookshop in Salamanca Square.

Sue-Ellen has promised to bring her beautiful cello along and perform a couple of pieces, and has some special insights to offer about things which touched her in Annette’s gripping page-turner about an Irish emigrant girl who plays cello in a string quartet in a vividly created 1928 Sydney.

Tune in to ABC Hobart 936 Breakfast with Ryk Goddard at 7:30am on 12 February to hear Annette interviewed about the book, the music – and no doubt her Tasmanian-born mother.
