Pixels Ensemble is a versatile group of chamber music players with a shared interest in performing the finest repertoire, from the classical period to the present day. Its players are all established soloists, chamber musicians, recording artists, orchestral principals and explorers of contemporary music. Formed in 2016 by pianist and director Ian Buckle, the group appears in a wide range of line-ups and combinations, lending itself to innovative programming and enabling huge variety within individual concerts. They will perform a work by Rebecca Clarke, described as one of the most distinguished British female composers of the inter-war generation . In addition they offer Elgar’s Piano Quintet, described by the Gramophone magazine as “big chamber music, with at times an almost orchestral sonority to it.” Their programme is completed with a classic Mozart piano concerto providing an intimate chamber music quality.
