On 12 May the Royal Philharmonic Society held an Awards ceremony at the Dorchester Hotel in London. The event celebrates excellence and integrity in classical music and has a reputation as 'UK’s most prestigious accolade for live classical music'.  After winning the Ensemble Award in 2007, Britten Sinfonia was delighted to be shortlisted a second time, and even more so to have won. Jacqueline Shave, leader, and David Butcher, Chief Executive, are pictured at the awards.

The Chamber Music Award was given in recognition of our Britten Sinfonia at Lunch series which is now entering its 5th year of touring. The series commissions new works, programmes engaging and lively concerts with world class artists and musicians. Each concert tour in the series travels to Cambridge, Norwich, London, Birmingham and Krakow; the series is also recorded live in Cambridge for broadcast by BBC Radio 3.
