Dunedin Consort is one of the world’s leading Baroque ensembles, recognised for its vivid and insightful performances and recordings. Formed in 1995, its ambition is to allow listeners to hear early music afresh, and to couple an inquisitive approach to historical performance with a commitment to commissioning and performing new music. Under the direction of John Butt, the ensemble has earned two coveted Gramophone Awards, a BBC Music Magazine Award, a Grammy nomination and in 2021, a Royal Philharmonic Society Ensemble Award. Dunedin Consort performs regularly at major festivals and venues across the UK and abroad, and enjoys close associations with the BBC Proms, Wigmore Hall, Edinburgh International Festival and Lammermuir Festival. Alongside its performance and recording work, Dunedin Consort is committed to a wide-ranging education programme both in schools and the wider community. In inspiring and encouraging musical participation, Dunedin Consort aims to develop and nurture its potential audience and encourage performers of the future. Dunedin Consort is an enthusiastic commissioner of contemporary music, and in recent years has premiered a new set of orchestral dances at the BBC Proms, a new opera by Errollyn Wallen at the Barbican Centre, and new choral music for its a cappella consort. The period 2024-26, has seen co-commissioning with The Barbican in London with a guitar concerto by Cassandra Miller, a cantata by David Fennessy, and a passion by Tansy Davies.
