Amy is a young, creative violinist at the beginning of her career. She made her solo violin debut aged 18 performing Bach’s Oboe and Violin Concerto with Wolverhampton Youth Orchestra, having been awarded Wolverhampton Young Musician of the Year. During her time studying at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, she has enjoyed furthering her special interests in historically informed performance, playing with Brecon Baroque Festival Orchestra and RWC Baroque Ensemble, and attending the Marnaves SummerBaroque course. Through these experiences she has worked with leading historical performance practitioners including Rachel Podger, Simon Jones and Margaret Faultless. She wrote her dissertation on the baroque violin, with a focus on the social reasons for changing luthiery practices in later eras. She is now the principal violinist of emerging baroque group The Calder Consort.

Beyond the baroque era, Amy sustains an eclectic range of playing commitments encompassing musical theatre, folk music, symphonic orchestral, opera and chamber music. She has been the leader of several LMTO Sitz sessions, co-principle for the Royal Welsh production of Poulenc’s Dialogues des Carmelites and Leader for their production of Guys and Dolls in Concert. Her versatility asa performer extends to appearing in theatrical productions as an actor-musician, and she recently made her professional theatre debut as the Violinist in A Song of Songs at the Park Theatre, London. Alongside her playing commitments, Amy is a committed teacher and aims to inspire creativity in her students. She is proud to be a Creative Learning Ambassador for the Benedetti Foundation. She is also a singer, oboist, and plays the viola da gamba. She aspires to sustain and develop this diversity in her continuing musical career.
