Who are we?

The group's artistic directors are Richard Shaw and Emma Williams

"Surprises littered the first of the Wigmore Hall's two birthday concerts. That Wind Divertimento [performed by Ensemble Lumière]; those songs, late and early, sung by Ian Partridge. So much to be thankful for, so much to enjoy."
The Times

"The undoubted skill of the players was amply displayed... a most impressive sound... beautifully played with pulsating special effects... played with superb skill and humour."
Grimsby Telegraph

"A dazzling performance from Ensemble Lumière."
