+ Facade Ensemble, The

'The Ensemble has a core of 8 or so musicians but one of its strengths is a versatility which enables it to perform music outside the scope of most chamber ensembles. With a reputation for binging a "liberal seasoning of vivacity and wit" to performances, the ensemble carefully curates programmes which are both imaginative and accessible. Proving time and time again that music - often sadly dismissed as "difficult" - can be a richly rewarding experience.'
