BACH
Cello Suite No.2 (21’)
Cello Suite No.4 (24’) 

Ensemble 360’s cellist, Gemma Rosefield presents two more of Bach’s well-loved and intimate works for unaccompanied cello, following her warmly-received recital in spring 2022. These Suites are some of the most frequently performed and recognisable solo compositions ever written for cello, and regularly feature in film and television soundtracks. They are presented together with a short, informal conversation about Bach’s celebrated works between Gemma and Tom McKinney, BBC Radio 3 presenter and Music in the Round’s Programme Manager.   

About the Artists

Members of Ensemble 360

Ensemble 360

Ensemble 360 has gained an enviable reputation across the UK for the quality and integrity of their performances. Formed in 2005, eleven musicians of international standing came together to take up residency in South Yorkshire with Music in the Round, establishing a versatile group comprising five string players, five wind players and a pianist.  

Their home performance space is Sheffield’s Crucible Studio Theatre, an intimate space in which the audience is seated “in the round” and never more than twenty feet away from the stage. It is from this wonderful performance space that both Ensemble 360 and Music in the Round take their names. 

They play a key role in Sheffield Chamber Music Festival each year, as well as regularly performing as part our autumn and spring seasons in Sheffield, South Yorkshire and around the country. Outside Ensemble 360, the musicians all have highly successful individual careers. Some are members of orchestras, including the Philharmonia, Royal Scottish National Orchestra, Royal Northern Sinfonia, London Mozart Players, Camerata Bern and Manchester Camerata. Find out more.
