Andrew Moore Music - Winchester Camerata

Leader: David Blunt Administrator: Louise Woods (email: winchestercamerata@gmail.com)

Next concert 12th October 2024

The Winchester Camerata is a string orchestra that was founded by Louise Woods in 2011 with conductor Andrew Moore and leader David Blunt to offer the opportunity for experienced local players to explore some of the extensive string repertoire - see below. The list of composers spans Bartok, Elgar, Grieg, Holst, Shostakovitch, Tchaikovsky and Vaughan-Williams, and some lesser-known such as Amy Beach, Lily Boulanger, Jean Francaix and Nino Rota. The Camerata’s twice-yearly concerts have become a noted feature of the Winchester music calendar. It has worked with distinguished soloists, as well as providing an opportunity for younger performers starting out on their career. It has performed at both the Winchester Festival and the Winchester Chamber Music Festival. With its entirely voluntary structure and funded only by ticket sales, the Camerata has happily been able to support a range of local charities.
