About the ensemble

The Levanto Ensemble is a dynamic wind trio who came together with the shared desire to discover and perform a variety of lesser-known works for this unusual combination of instruments. They met in 2017 whilst studying at the Royal Academy of Music and began performing in a wide range of ensembles together. The ensemble were selected as one of six semi-finalists in the renowned St. Martin in the Fields' Chamber Music Competition, 2020. They are also semi-finalists in the Royal Overseas League Competition 2021.

Whilst the trio has delved into a wide range of repertoire, from Classical to twentieth century, they have a particular love for modern works that explore, contrast, and combine the unique nuances of these three instruments.
