As former BBC New Generation Artists, the Galliard Ensemble has become one of Britain's leading chamber groups and is known for its lively, entertaining and distinctive performance style that has thrilled audiences in Britain and abroad. The ensemble's CDs have been selected by the Sunday Times, BBC Music Magazine, Gramophone, and BBC Radio 3 in their critics' choices of outstanding releases. Their lyrical Festival programme ends with Paul Patterson's Westerly Winds, a suite of short fantasias based on West Country folk tunes which was written for the Galliard Ensemble and premiered by them at the Purcell Room.

 

"One of the 10 chamber groups in the world to keep an eye on." Classic CD
