Cellophony in Swinton ParkDate: 06/24/2011 - 11:00 Location: UK: Masham, North Yorkshire Work Performed: Bachianas Brasileiras #1 Cellophony (8 cellos) Cellophony Prelude from Tristan und Isolde - Richard Wagner Cellophony is the vibrant, sonorous and exhilarating sound of an octet of young professional cellists. The group was established in 2007 in London, and is beginning to carve a reputation as accomplished exponents of not only the standard cello ensemble repertory, but also a diverse array of specially commissioned arrangements and adaptations. They were finalists in the 2010 Royal Over-Seas League chamber music competition, and have featured at festivals all over the country; including the City of London Festival, Cambridge Summer Recitals, Oundle International Music Festival, York Cello Weekend, Northern Chords at The Sage, Gateshead and the Park Lane Group New Year series at London's Purcell Room. They have recently recorded their first full CD, on the Music Chamber label. The members of Cellophony also work as soloists, chamber musicians and freelance orchestral players, in the UK and abroad. Individually they have won a host of prizes, including the Royal Overseas League soloist's Gold Medal, the Guilhermina Suggia Gift, the Muriel Taylor Scholarship, and representation by the Young Concert Artists' Trust.
