Bloomsbury Players

The Bloomsbury Players was formed to explore the rich chamber music repertoire from the Classical to Romantic periods and beyond, that is less commonly performed on period instruments and with a historical approach. Renowned string and wind players in the fields of historical and 'modern' performance who prioritise the shared values of chamber collaboration, they perform around the world as soloists, chamber musicians and orchestral principals with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Academy of St. Martin in the Fields, Academy of Ancient Music and the English Concert among others. The ensemble brings a sense of joy and discovery to their interpretations, exploring performance practices of the time to re-imagine the sound-worlds that might have existed when these pieces were newly composed.
