Academy of St. Martin in
the Fields Chamber Ensemble

In 1959, eleven enthusiastic musicians formed an orchestra whose aim was to perform in public without a conductor. Thus was born The Academy of St. Martin in the Fields, the beginning of a remarkable history that now boasts well over 500 albums, making it the most recorded chamber orchestra in the world. The Academy of St. Martin in the Fields Chamber Ensemble was created in 1967 to perform the larger chamber works. Drawn from the principal players of the orchestra, the Chamber Ensemble receives extraordinary accolades everywhere it tours, such as a recent New York Times review, calling theirs “a bristling performance.”
