Since then\, they have played in various venues and popular lunchtime recital series including Regent Hall and Royal Overseas League in London\, with future concerts booked at Champs Hill and Chichester Cathedral.

Tim launched his debut album\, Transcriptions\, in Autumn 2025 to great acclaim\, being ranked No.4 in Textura’s Top 20 for 2025 (Instrumental). \nLeo Kerr graduated from the Royal Academy of Music in 2023\, having previously attended St Mary’s Music School where he played Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto with the school’s orchestra after winning their concerto prize. Leo has performed in venues such as the Queen Elizabeth Hall and Snape Maltings alongside the London Sinfonietta and Knussen Chamber Orchestra\, as well as live on BBC Radio Scotland and Radio 3. \nBríona Mannion is a passionate chamber musician and soloist who has performed at prestigious festivals and venues such as the Gstaad Menuhin Festival\, Pablo Casals Festival\, Dublin National Concert Hall and the Queen’s Hall Edinburgh.
