We are delighted to welcome back this wonderful European chamber orchestra.

Founded in 2006 by Leonid Tritus, the Kammerphilharmonie Europa is an orchestra of talented young musicians from 18 countries, nine of which (seven strings, oboe and trumpet) are coming on this tour to the UK. It is a free orchestra with a focus on classical music that brings together committed musicians with the aim of forming an artistically demanding ensemble even without a permanent sponsorship.

Based at the gates of Cologne, they now employ over 60 professional musicians, who all look back on a sound education and a versatile stage experience at an international level.

The central motivation of their work is the claim to unite independently, especially with regard to the selection of repertoire and soloists.
