Sarah Small

Intrigued by the unique sound of the viol and its ability to communicate what words cannot always express, Sarah was drawn to play the instrument whilst she was a recorder student at the Royal College of Music.
Sarah holds a Masters with Distinction from the RCM and was a scholar both there, under the tutelage of Reiko Ichise, and at the Hochschule für Künste in Bremen with Hille Perl.
