Her Ensemble is a string orchestra that formed during the pandemic after discovering that in 2019, just 3.6% of the classical music pieces performed worldwide were written by women. Their aim is to make a positive impact on the gender gap in the industry, whilst creating space for musicians of marginalised genders - the first of its kind in the UK. Merging aspects from popular music and classical music scenes, the free-form group aim to shine a light on music written by women which has been overlooked for centuries, and make this accessible to everyone by doing away with rigid rules and traditions. Performances have a distinctly relaxed feel, with players interacting with the audience, using artistic lighting, welcoming drinks in, and using fashion as a means for self expression, replacing standard binary gendered concert dress codes and playing around with gender stereotypes.
