About The Nash Ensemble

The Nash Ensemble is a chamber orchestra consisting of 11 regular members, though their number can vary widely according to the work performed. The group's repertory is broad, but favors modern works by English composers. It performs most of its subscription concerts at Wigmore Hall, but also appears at other locations. Founded in 1964 by Amelia Freedman, its longtime artistic director, the ensemble initially developed its reputation in Great Britain, only slowly gaining recognition abroad. By 2017 it had given more than 300 premieres, 192 of them of commissioned works. Mostly associated with the Hyperion label, it records prolifically, with releases balanced between mainstream repertory and contemporary works in many styles and from many different countries.
