Primavera
, as one of Britain’s finest chamber ensembles, has created an enviable reputation with an accolade of reviews at international festivals
across Britain and Europe, alongside many appearances on the South Bank and Wigmore Hall. Formed in 1986 by its artistic director, violinist, Paul
Manley, the name of the group is based on the Italian word for spring, reflecting the
joie de vivre
that these musicians bring to their performances.
Besides engagements, Primavera has created its own concert series at some of the finest country houses in the UK, which led to two TV series
entitled
Music in Mansions
for Meridian Television. Aside from its concert and recording work, education and community projects have become an
important focus of Primavera’s commitment to tomorrow’s audiences, with groundbreaking projects in prisons and special needs schools, linking
the power of emotions within music to emotional intelligence.
