Biography
The Bloomsbury Players was formed to explore the rich chamber music repertoire from the classical to late romantic periods and beyond, that is less commonly performed on period instruments and with a historical approach. Renowned players within the fields of both period and 'modern' performance, they bring a sense of discovery to their fresh interpretations, re-creating the sound worlds that might have existed when these pieces were first composed.
Core players: Sijie Chen (violin), Will McGahon (violin), Hannah Shaw (viola), John Crockatt (viola), Orlando Jopling ('cello), Alex Jones (double bass), Katherine Spencer (clarinet)
