Crescent Recorders

Part of the Classical Sheffield Weekend 2023

Crescent Recorders was formed in February 2019 at the monthly Sheffield Branch meeting of the Society of Recorder Players, (SRP), with the hope of playing intimate chamber music on a regular basis; a hope that has been successfully realised, despite the pandemic. The group performs in various combinations of players and instruments, from duets to quartets, and from Sopranino to Contra Bass, playing an equally varied repertoire of musical styles and periods, although they are most at home when performing the music of the Baroque and Renaissance eras.
