The nine days of Sheffield Chamber Music Festival, featuring Ensemble 360 and guests, are an absolute highlight of our year. It’s an opportunity to enjoy a huge range of music in just a few days; for audiences to gain more in-depth knowledge about our Ensemble 360 musicians, a composer or a piece of music; and for us to present music that’s rarely heard.
For this year’s Festival, we’ve been working with Guest Festival Curator, the Scottish composer Helen Grime MBE.
Winner of a British Composer Award in 2003, Helen’s work has been widely performed across the world, with commissions from prestigious organisations such as the BBC Proms, London Symphony Orchestra, Tanglewood Music Center and Wigmore Hall, where she was Composer in Residence from 2016-18.
For Sheffield Chamber Music Festival 2022, Helen has produced a dazzling programme with her musical fingerprints all over it: deeply embedded in the canon of classical music, but outward-looking to the innovative and surprising.
In each concert, she’ll be sharing some of the wonderful chamber music gems that so many of us love, as well as introducing rarely-played delights that deserve to be heard more often, uncovering a world of treats for your ears to enjoy.
