Ensemble Hesperi is a dynamic and innovative London-based period ensemble, with a reputation for showcasing Baroque Music through intelligent, research-led programming. The four members of Ensemble Hesperi met during their studies at the Royal College of Music in London, and the varied talents of each member of the ensemble combine to present joyful and educational performances for audiences of all kinds. Whether performing as the core ensemble of recorder, baroque violin, baroque cello and harpsichord, or collaborating with friends for larger projects, Hesperi aims to embody the true spontaneity of chamber music.

In 2020, the ensemble was selected as Britten Pears Young Artists, and won first prize at the London International Festival of Early Music Young Ensemble Competition. In 2021, the ensemble was awarded third prize at the prestigious International Van Wassenaer Competition, became City Music Foundation artists, and released its debut album, In autumn 2023, Hesperi launched its new vocal ensemble, the Hesperi Voices. The ensemble appears regularly on BBC Radio 3’s Early Music Show and In Tune programmes, and has a busy schedule of performances at leading festivals and venues in the UK and further afield.
