• “The reasons for Britten Sinfonia’s incremental rise in the past 20 years are various, but among them are a commitment to interesting programmes and the assiduous building of relationships”

  Financial Times

• “The playing was marked by the kind of luminous and infectious beauty that only comes from a true marriage of mastery and love”

  The Guardian

• “The UK’s most consistently dynamic chamber ensemble”

  The New Statesman

• “I haven’t heard a chamber orchestra performing with such extrovert character and unflagging energy for years.”

  The Times

• “But as always with this orchestra there was more to savour than just stellar perfomance. The programme was ingeniously shaped.”

  The Daily Telegraph, Ivan Hewett

Guest Artists

The artistic vision of Britten Sinfonia is built around the extraordinary skills and development of its players – all chamber musicians and soloists of the highest quality.  Britten Sinfonia invites international artists from across right the musical spectrum to work with them on projects suited to the particular skills of each visiting artist. More recently the orchestra has developed close associations with certain artists who they consult and work with regularly.
