Tailleferre Ensemble
Founded by oboists Nicola Hands and Penelope Smith, since its inception in 2019 the group has gone from strength to strength. The ensemble’s work encompasses diverse instrumentation, time periods, and genres, with a particular onus on promoting underrepresented and underappreciated works and composers, both historical and contemporary. Their playing has been praised for its "extensive palette of timbres". The Tailleferre Ensemble are Musicians in Residence at St. John’s Church, Notting Hill.
