Catherine Underhill
Catherine Underhill is a British oboist and cor anglais player.
She graduated with a first class BA Honours in Music from University of Southampton in 2017 and completed her Masters in Oboe Performance at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance in 2020, where she was a Helen Roll Trust and Trinity Laban scholar. She studied with Ruth Bolister, David Thomas and Alan Garner. During her studies, she was a semi-finalist in the Trinity Laban soloists competition and performed with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.
Performances have taken Catherine across the UK and to Europe, in concert halls and theatres, including Cadogan Hall and the Mayflower Theatre. She has played in France, the Netherlands and with the Berlin Opera Academy in Switzerland. Catherine has given recitals for the Iris Axon Concert Series, in the Old Royal Naval College Chapel and at Southwark Cathedral. As a soloist, she has performed with the Marcello Oboe Concerto and she is a member of Hacha Duo (bass clarinet and cor anglais). Catherine has performed in masterclasses for Juliana Koch and Tom Blomfield and received a scholarship to study with David Theodore at the British Isles Music Festival.
Catherine has played in a number of chamber groups, commissioning new works for oboe and harp, cor anglais and bass clarinet, as well as performing in commissions for ensembles featuring the double bass. Catherine is also co-artistic director of Collective31, UK Contemporary Music and Arts. She enjoys immersing herself in all the arts and collaborating across the art forms.
Catherine plays a Marigaux 2001 oboe and a Lorée cor anglais.
Neus Peris
London based pianist Neus Peris is emerging as an exciting artist to see thanks to her sensitivity and expression in performance. Taking interest in a wide range of composers, her versatile repertoire include works by Bach, Brahms, Mompou, Messiaen and Mussorgsky among others, as well as contemporary music.
Having also developed a solid reputation as a collaborative pianist, Neus has performed both solo and chamber music in venues and festivals in the UK, Denmark, Norway, Spain, France, Portugal and the US.
Past engagements include a solo recital for Borough New Music – presenting music by Green, Wilson and Finch along with the world premier of a commissioned work by KC Cheng, a collaboration with EOS ensemble, with music by Arutunian and Ustvolskaya, and a tour with mezzo-soprano Anna Prowse commemorating the Armistice Day, performing music by English composers related to WW1.
Originally from Barcelona, Neus has been living in London since 2015, where she completed a Masters Degree at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance. She had the privilege of receiving advice from many inspiring musicians such as Douglas Finch, Eileen and Derek Aviss, Philip Fowke, Eugene Asti, Malcolm Martineau and Pascal Rogé, to name just a few.
