Britten Sinfonia

The Britten Sinfonia is a chamber orchestra that, in its own words, "is inspired by the ethos of Benjamin Britten through world-class performances, illuminating and distinctive programmes where old meets new, and a deep commitment to bringing outstanding music to both the world's finest concert halls and the local community." The Sinfonia regularly collaborates with outside figures, many of them of international stature, including composers, performers, conductors, and jazz and popular musicians. The Britten Sinfonia was heard on several albums in 2021, including recordings of Grayston Ives' Requiem and the rare Donizetti opera Il Paria.
