Our newest Ensemble is the Baroque Ensemble, founded in 2014, which is primarily open to string players, but we also bring in soloists so, if you play an instrument from this period, you are welcome join us.
In 2017 we brought in the famous 'Avison Ensemble', led by the renowned Baroque violinist, Pavlo Beznosiuk, to run a workshop with our students.
Soon after this workshop we produced a CD of the Baroque Ensemble that featured music by Vivaldi, Bach, and Purcell, along with works by Charles Avison from Newcastle and John Garth from Durham.
This is us playing a concerto by Charles Avison with members of the Avison Ensemble.
