Francesca's Reviews

5 out of 5

The Newham Philharmonic Orchestra booked Francesca for a Newham Philharmonic course and performances and was extremely pleased with her playing, contributions and general attitude to the project.

Fran Lombardelli’s jazzy drumming was another key ingredient in the mix.
