Sarah Small is a viola da gamba player based in the UK. She performs regularly as a soloist and chamber musician with ensembles including Fretwork, Musica Antica Rotherhithe, Charivari Agreable, and her own ensemble Hex.

Intrigued by the unique sound of the viol and its ability to communicate what words cannot always express, Sarah was drawn to play the instrument whilst she was a recorder student at the Royal College of Music.

Sarah holds a Masters with Distinction from the RCM and was a scholar both there, under the tutelage of Reiko Ichise, and at the Hochschule für Künste in Bremen with Hille Perl.
