Fabulous to play for Nottingham Chamber Music Festival yesterday! We had a great time.

Had quite a grilling from Donald for BBC R3 'Composer of the Week' today! Great fun! Not to be broadcast til September. Stainer & Bell @TyCerdd_org @NLW Robert Quinney @penelope_oboe Nicola Hands Christopher Austin Richard Peat Laura Reid Gillian Keith Simon Lepper


#OTD 100 years ago, #MadeleineDring was born. We’re celebrating with one of our favourite pieces, her Trio for Flute, Oboe & Piano. This clip captures the playful energy & theatrical nature of her music. Performed by Emma Halnan, Nicola Hands & Lana Bode at St Anne’s Kew Green.


SAVE THE DATE! We’re raising funds for Refuge this Christmas. Please join us at 7.30pm on Friday 8th December at St John Notting Hill for an evening of chamber music and Christmas cheer. Tickets: tailleferre-ensemble.com/store Nicola Hands @penelope_oboe #VAWG #DomesticAbuse


I'm up north and ruining Nicola Hands photos in front of Lincoln Cathedral today (swipe to spot my accidental photobombing). Nic is playing the oboe in tonight's Messiah, but I think our first appearance together was as fairies in university G&S Society's "Iolanthe"...🧚🧚♀️🧚♂️



Rehearsals are underway for our Refuge fundraiser concert. We’re trying out a transposition of Errollyn Wallen’s ‘Peace on Earth’ for cor anglais and piano with Nicola Hands and Lana Bode. Join us THIS FRIDAY! 7.30pm St John Notting Hill. tailleferre-ensemble.com/store #vawg


Ingrid Stölzel is here with us! We're excited about performing the première of her new arrangement today in Old Harlow. We'll also be playing work by Dana Joras, Rhonda Larson, Isabella Leonarda and Julius Röntgen. If you can't catch us today, we're performing again tomorrow!


Enjoyed the Tailleferre Ensemble early evening concert and look forward to listening to your CD (which features a #Tailleferre premiere)



Really looking forward to going to Norfolk with Tailleferre Ensemble in June! For tickets to our 7th June concert at Gresham's school visit trybooking.com/UK/dijk. Emma Halnan #norfolkmusic #visitnorfolk #classicalmusic #musicinnorfolk #livemusic #chambermusic


Lovely to play with City of London Sinfonia (CLS) tonight, performing Bach B Minor Mass in Hove. And there's an artistic touch!


Congratulations Errollyn Wallen !
