The Aurora Trio is an exciting young chamber ensemble, which is quickly developing a reputation for pushing the boundaries of its unusual instrumentation. Its repertoire comprises many new works and original arrangements alongside core flute, viola and harp repertoire.
Since its conception in 2012, the trio has performed widely across the UK; recent engagements include recitals at the Wigmore Hall, Colston Hall, Queen Elizabeth Hall Front Room, Halesworth Festival, Norwich and Norfolk Festival, and Roehampton University.
From 2014-16, the trio held a prestigious chamber music fellowship at the Royal Academy of Music. During their time as fellows, they worked closely with performers and composers from the student body as well as from the Junior Department and Open Academy (the learning and participation department). The Aurora Trio are selected musical artists for ‘Live Music Now’ and ‘The Concordia Foundation’.
In July 2016, they were awarded the Dorothy Parkinson Memorial Award for Young British Musicians at Harrogate International Festival.
