Leitner, who is currently touring Europe, will perform tracks from her new collection Earthmagic, with harpist Duccio Lombardi at the north London venue.
The Austrian musician is a keen supporter of the urban tree planting charity, which aims to promote the benefits of trees and green spaces to city residents in the UK and beyond.
Accompanied by Lombardi, she will perform a vibrant mix of pieces, including, among others, the full Sonata in C Major by JS Bach, Beau Soir by Debussy and her own compositions, which have been inspired by nature.
Proceeds go to Trees for Cities, the urban tree planting charity whose mission is to improve city spaces and bring people together by increasing the number of plants and trees. In total the charity has planted over 140,000 trees worldwide on streets, in parks, local woodlands and community projects.
Tickets are on sale now at £15, and can be purchased from www.treesforcities.org/

The charity’s vision is to stimulate a greening renaissance in cities around the world that will impact on global warming and beautify the urban landscape, as well as encouraging greater social cohesion through the active participation of local people. A special effort is made to involve children and young people in all of the projects. The public can get involved by sponsoring trees, registering as a volunteer, enrolling in training programmes, taking part in the annual Tree-Athlon and going to fundraising parties – see www.treesforcities.org for more information.
