The former Bath Festival Orchestra has renamed itself Chromatica and taken up residency at the Battersea Arts Centre in south London.
The driving force is concertmaster Maren Bosma.
She says Chromatica is ‘a tight knit ‘family’ of musicians sharing music onstage with a dynamism that draws the audience into a shared musical experience. Performances do not follow a one-way street from stage to audience. They are a shared journey through the universe of the music performed. This way, the orchestra endeavours to bring a wide repertoire to new audiences and inspire a younger generation to engage with classical music.’
