Izzie’s intensive classical training began at Chethams’ School, Manchester (one of the country’s specialist music schools). Here she had violin lessons and the very best in musical education. From Chethams, she moved to the Royal Academy of Music in London. From birth, music was everywhere in her family. Her father is a clarinettist and her mother plays the bassoon. Her parents run a music school in Harpenden (Harpenden Musicale), where Izzy has taught the violin on a regular basis. Izzy’s three brothers are all musicians – Magnus 28 (violin) is a BBC New Generation Artist, Guy 26 (cello) was BBC Young Musician of the Year in 2000 and Rupert 30 was a brilliant French horn player until, sadly, he was involved in a near fatal car accident and is now living in a brain injury rehabilitation unit in Aylesbury (Kent House).
