The Nephele Ensemble is
formed of soloists and chamber musicians who have appeared
at many prestigious venues throughout the UK and abroad.
Formed in 2007 they have established a reputation for fine
performances, with engagements together taking them to
prestigious venues and concert series' such as St. David's
Hall, Cardiff and the Leeds International Concert Season.
Although essentially a flute
quartet, they regularly perform with guest artists. They
have recently collaborated with William Vann (piano), Celine
Saout (harp), Timothy Orpen (clarinet), Cressida Wislocki
(viola) and Emily Steinitz (violin).
The Nephele Ensemble recently
commissioned 'Aerial', a stunning new work by the
distinguished British composer Timothy Salter. The premiere
took place on 30th January, with further performances taking
place in Rhyl, Carlisle, London and Chichester.
