Founded in 2019, Ensemble Augelletti specialises in creating engaging programmes that tell the everyday stories of people living in the 17th and 18th centuries through baroque chamber music. They are known for compelling performances that demonstrate an ‘equal capacity for elegant pathos and rip-roaring technical dexterity’ (The Arts Desk, 2024) and are often praised for ‘a profound understanding of their innovative repertoire’ (Charles Hutch Press, 2024). Ensemble Augelletti are BBC New Generation Baroque Ensemble (2023-25) and City Music Foundation Artists (2024-26).

Ensemble Augelletti perform regularly on BBC Radio 3’s ‘In Tune’ and ‘Early Music’ Shows and in arts festivals across the UK including York, London, Brighton, Beverley Early Music festivals. They were finalists of the York International Young Artist Competition and released their debut CD recording entitled ‘The Library of a Prussian Princess’ on Barn Cottage Records in 2022. Their year-long digital project ‘Pick a Card…’ explored historical playing cards from the British Museum’s collection reaching more than 50K online viewers and their KS1 outreach programme ‘Augelletti’s Aviary’ in collaboration with Voces8 launched in September 2024.
