Manchester Camerata has been performing high quality chamber music to the people of Manchester, the North West of England and Cumbria for the best part of 30 years. Camerata is committed to using the inspirational power of live music to transform lives and celebrates its unique position as a chamber orchestra to deliver this in the twenty first century in the concert hall, in schools across the region, through recordings, and increasingly in cyberspace.
Douglas Boyd became Manchester Camerata’s Music Director in 2001, and is currently recording a live Beethoven Symphony cycle with the orchestra, to be completed in 2011. In September 2011 he'll hand the baton to Gábor Takács-Nagy.
Simon Millward was the Manchester Camerata's national press consultant from 2004 to 2005.
