| Louise spent a number of years as a leading member of the renowned Orlando Singers, Dorset Chamber Opera, Ely Consort, Norwich Cathedral Consort and the Norfolk and Norwich festival chorus. Louise graduated in Music from the University of East Anglia in 1998, where she had been the holder of the Britten-Pears (96-97) and the Hansell Stevenson (97-98) Scholarships. Later, she achieved an MMus from the University of Hull, specialising in Performance and Educational Composition. She was taught by Ross Winters, Professor of Recorder at The Royal College of Music, and is currently taught by Pamela Thorby. Recitals undertaken include some of the most beautiful venues in the world including Ely Cathedral, Boston´s King´s Chapel and many college chapels in Oxford and Cambridge. She has performed several solo concerti with the Norfolk Baroque Ensemble and the Orquesta de Cámara de Chile, numerous festivals throughout the UK including the Cardiff Festival, the Wirksworth Festival and the Aldeburgh Festival. Louise has also appeared on Anglia Television and BBC Radio as part of the Norfolk and Norwich Festival. She has performed Malcolm Arnold's Recorder Concerto at a special concert in the presence of the composer, and participated in workshops with Piers Adams and QNG 138. Louise is in demand as a performer of 20th century music as well as the more traditional repertoire bringing a dazzling new piquancy, and indeed ethnicity, to the recorder's capabilities. Louise currently lives and teaches in central England. |


| Hiding behind the apparently respectable image of a Baroque recorder and harpsichord duo, Louise and David are on a mission to entertain. Through a programme spanning centuries, they present highly charged performances of Baroque masterpieces, virtuoso showstoppers, and repertoire in a variety of 20th Century and contemporary styles – with some wholly original work thrown in for good measure. Combining serious musicianship with a thoroughly infectious sense of fun, an evening with Baroquenroll promises musical satisfaction with a zesty twist of irreverence. |
