In Echo

In Echo
Continuo Grantee
Formed and directed by cornetto player Gawain Glenton, In Echo is a diverse ensemble that explores the rich repertoires of the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries. Specialising in Renaissance and Baroque music, the ensemble also commissions and performs new music for old instruments. The ensemble's debut recording 'Music in a Cold Climate' reached the top ten of the classical charts and garnered stellar reviews. The ensemble has since gone on to perform at prestigious Early Music festivals such as Brecon, Beverley, York, Brighton, Keble, Trollhättan and Regensburg. In 2024, In Echo presented the opening concert of Purbeck Art Weeks.

'In variation-based pieces, cornettist Glenton, keyboardist Silas Wollston and violinist Bojan Cicic pull material out of nowhere, like magicians… Overall, a fascinating journey' – BBC Music Magazine ★★★★

'This debut disc by the crack British ensemble In Echo focuses on rarely heard 17th-century music from England, Denmark, Holland and northern Germany… A fascinating disc.' – Fiona Maddocks, The Observer
