A REVOLUTIONARY STRING ORCHESTRA The London-based 12 Ensemble has evolved from a visionary group of like-minded musicians into one of Europe’s leading string orchestras. A pioneering un-conducted ensemble, the group has developed a reputation as an exhilarating collective reaching audiences worldwide with powerful musical experiences. Formed in 2012 by Artistic Directors Eloisa-Fleur Thom and Max Ruisi, the 12 Ensemble’s unique approach to presenting a broad range of exceptional music sets them apart in today’s shifting musical landscape. The group performs internationally at concert halls and festivals, including three appearances at the BBC Proms in the Royal Albert Hall, regular concerts at the Barbican and Wigmore Hall plus tours to the US and Asia. The ensemble has also released two critically-acclaimed albums; Resurrection (2018) and Death and the Maiden (2020). Most recently, the ensemble has collaborated closely with Radiohead guitarist and composer Jonny Greenwood (recording his soundtracks to Oscar-nominated films Spencer and The Power of the Dog), and worked with Nick Cave and Warren Ellis recording the album Carnage and appearing in their latest documentary film ‘This Much I Know to be True’ directed by Andrew Dominik.
