Core members are joined by guests to enable the widest possible range of programming from standard classical to new musical worlds.
A unique sound world
From theorbo, lyra polyversalis or chamber organ to violin, flute, vibraphone, vocalist - a melting pot for innovation.
A playground for creatives
The Sheridan Ensemble's musicians perform globally as soloists and in ensembles for Baroque, Classical or Contemporary music, Jazz, Pop and Cabaret. In the Sheridan Ensemble they come together in a group where creativity is the bottom line. No holds barred.
