The Kelvin Ensemble was founded in 1991 by a group of students at Glasgow University, to allow musicians from all faculties to perform challenging music to the highest level.
Since its formation the Ensemble has gone from strength to strength, and its reputation has earned invitations to perform throughout the country, including representing Glasgow University in prestigious music festivals. The Ensemble's own concerts in the University's magnificent Bute Hall and Memorial Chapel regularly attract sell-out audiences as well as representation from the national press.
The Kelvin Ensemble is ideally placed to foster local and young talent whether it is amongst its own members or in its choice of conductors and soloists. An impressive line up of conductors has directed previous concerts including John Lubbock, Christopher Bell, William Conway, Nigel Boddice and Garry Walker.
