Revolutionary History:
How did we choose our name?
The name refers to the revolutionary years in Europe between 1789 and 1848, the "drawing room" being the place where chamber music was performed in Georgian times. These dates are only a guide to give an idea of the period of music we cover but we often perform works written both before and after these dates.
Where have we performed?
The ensemble has appeared in the Ottawa Chamber Music Festival, in Stuttgart, Potsdam, Holland, Austria, Switzerland and the UK. We have held residencies at Southampton University and in the English Haydn Festival, and have appeared more recently in Exeter, Norwich, Cambridge and London in the UK, and in Denmark in the Odsherreds Chamber Music Festival.
