Music in Adderbury

This series was founded in 1987 by  Christopher Windass to fulfil a lifelong passion  for chamber music. Christopher is a violinist with many of the country’s ensembles,  chamber and symphony orchestras.

The Music in Adderbury series takes place in the glorious  setting of Adderbury Parish Church. This stunning venue has played host  to concerts featuring many of the country’s most brilliant musicians and  chamber ensembles.

There have been over 100 concerts given in  the church as part of Music in Adderbury. Some well-known musicians who have taken part include Christopher Warren-Green, Robert Cohen, Bradley Creswick, Andrew Manze, Nigel North, Emily Beynon, Jane Atkins, Sian Edwards, Jonathan Kelly, Carolyn Sampson and Andrew Haveron.

The highly acclaimed Adderbury Ensemble was formed in 1987 and has given many concerts in the series. It draws its members from all over the country. The players hold principal positions in other major British orchestras.
