Joseph Crouch – Baroque ‘Cello

Joseph Crouch studied at King’s College Cambridge and the Royal Academy of Music. Since then, he has built a reputation as one of the most respected and sought-after Baroque instrumentalists in Europe. He has performed and recorded as solo cellist with most of the leading period instrument orchestras in the UK and is principal cellist with The English Concert and joint principal with The Academy of Ancient Music. He also works in Germany, where he is the solo cellist with the Internationale Bachakademie, Stuttgart. Joe teaches Baroque cello at The Guildhall School of Music and Drama, and also gives classes in Baroque techniques and performance practice to modern players, both students and professionals. In this capacity he has coached the cellists of The Royal Opera House and English National Opera as well as The BBC National Orchestra of Wales and Welsh National Opera.
