Biography
London Concertante enjoys an enviable position in the world of classical music where it is regarded as one of the finest chamber ensembles in Europe - a position it has spent the last 17 years striving to maintain. Begun in 1991, the ensemble quickly garnered praise both here and abroad and now gives around 100 concerts a year all over the world.
“Quality musicians. Quite excellent…pursuing each new pulse with the unanimity of a shoal of fish. play with tone as soft as velvet, bow strokes that really sing and a Romanticist’s wide volume range.” Evening Standard
As well as performing regularly for music clubs and festivals in the UK, in the first part of 2008, London Concertante toured to the USA, Cyprus and will be giving concerts in Spain and Turkey later in the year. The group’s first release on the Chandos label (”Gypsy Strings”) came out to unequivocal critical acclaim and new CDs will be released on both the Toccata Classics and Harmonia Mundi labels later in the year.
“played with silky-toned elegance…extraordinary unanimity. The London Concertante members, fine chamber musicians that they are, played with an uncanny clarity of texture…quite exquisite.” The Strad
