We’re excited to introduce a new Italian programme to 2024 with female composers such as sisters Settimia & Francesca Caccini at centre stage. SurreyHillsMusicFest have announced their super programme for this year and we are very excited to feature ! 💃

Thank you Elizabeth Kenny for our super session on Strozzi and Lambert and to @BREMF for organising! A great morning of drama and melancholy 🤓

Some things I’m doing soon! + auditions + teaching + admin and more admin + probably even more admin + training for a 10km swim (gulp) hope to see you somewhere. More info on website 👋

Joy at today’s rehearsal prepping for tomorrow’s New Generation Baroque Ensemble Development day! (Claire creating the content and therefore not photographed) NCEM

Today at the New Generation Baroque Ensemble Development Day, we found Lady Dering Royal College of Music - thought to be the first female British composer to have her works published (alongside having 17 children!)Thanks NCEM & BBC Radio 3 for a great, inspiring and helpful day!

Superb performance by ⁦The Portrait Players⁩ of 17th C music by Handel, Purcell & others. Much of it done in the (female-run) Salons of Paris. Definitely an ensemble to watch!👏👏👏
