The English Chamber Orchestra Ensemble is a highly versatile and flexible group of musicians, which has evolved naturally from the membership of the English Chamber Orchestra.

Since its inception in 1960 the ECO has incorporated a core of accomplished chamber musicians. For over forty years the ECO Ensemble has performed frequently in both London and abroad in a variety of different formations, complementing the work of the Orchestra. The Ensemble has collaborated with artists such as Daniel Barenboim, Christoph Eschenbach, Murray Perahia, Mitsuko Uchida and Christian Zacharias.

In 1998 the ECO Ensemble made its debut in New York and also in London’s Wigmore Hall; since then it has performed in Paris, Madrid, London (at many venues including the Barbican Hall and Kensington Palace) Scotland and Wales. In 2002 the Ensemble made its BBC Proms debut whilst during 2003 the Ensemble was resident on a Music Cruise on the River Elbe and (in its all-brass formation) participated in the first performances of Tavener’s “Veil of the Temple”. Since then the ECO Ensemble has been invited to give two Wigmore Hall concerts each season, as well as regular performances across the UK. For the last two summers the Ensemble has been resident at Blair Atholl Summer Music Festival.
