The English Concert

Ensemble

The English Concert is among the finest chamber orchestras in the world, with an outstanding reputation for inspiring… and stylish performances of Baroque and Classical music in the concert hall and on CD. In London they present an annual concert series at venues including Wigmore Hall, Barbican Hall and the South Bank Centre, appearing also at London festivals, notably the BBC Proms  and Lufthansa Festival of Baroque Music. In the UK they have a particularly close relationship with St George’s Bristol.
