Our last concert given by Amaryillis, proved to be everything we anticipated and a bit more, with an encouraging number in the audience too. So here’s to our next event.
Nathaniel, originally from Gloucestershire, had harpsichord lessons with Richard Lester in Cirencester, before studying at the Royal Academy with Carole Cerasi. He is now regarded as one of the leading players of his generation being particularly known for his performances of 18th Century French Masters. He performs regularly in France after being invited to perform with the celebrated Musiciens du Louvre by Marc Minkowski.
Magda began violin lessons in Cumbria and went on to study at Chethams’s School and then to the Royal College where she took up the Baroque violin. She has won many accolades and has played with all the leading Early Music groups including Academy of Ancient Music, Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, English Concert, and Florilegium. She plays with Ensemble Hesperi (who came to WEM in October last year) and is passionate about chamber music. She is a founding member of the highly successful Consone Quartet which has played worldwide.
This concert is sponsored by Border Marches Early Music Forum, the Elmley Foundation and Worcester Arts Council.
