Hailed by critics and audiences alike, Japanese violinist Coco Tomita first gained recognition after winning the BBC Young Musician 2020 Strings Category. She was subsequently invited to record her debut album, ‘Origins’ with Orchid Classics, which received a succession of rave reviews from The Strad, Gramophone Magazine, BBC Music Magazine and The Guardian, among others, and was selected as ‘Disc of the month’ by Apple in April 2022. Coco has since received over 5.5 million streams on Apple Music alone and released her follow up album ‘Echoes’ in September 2024.
