Bishop Ensemble
Founded in 2014, the Bishop Ensemble is a dynamic trio of young classical musicians, formed of alumni of Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music & Dance.
Originally founded as a chamber collective, the group has since condensed to a piano trio, which actively performs in various combinations across London and the Home Counties. With a mix of firm favourites and newly composed works in their repertoire, the Bishop Ensemble is passionate about bringing a wealth of different music to its audiences, with spoken introductions for each piece providing the audience with the chance to understand the music from the inside.
