Pelléas Ensemble
The Pelléas Ensemble was formed at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in 2011. Playing with “verve and polish” (The Times), they won the Royal Philharmonic Society’s Henderson Chamber Ensemble Award in 2018 and, in 2016, they won both the Grand Prize and the Audience Prize in the St Martin-in-the-Fields Chamber Music Competition, and were awarded a place on the prestigious Tillett Trust Young Artists’ Programme.
Their Wigmore Hall debut was praised for its “captivating vitality” and “effortlessness and delicacy”. They have appeared live on BBC Radio 3’s ‘In Tune’, and have given numerous recitals in London and around the UK.
