Riot Ensemble
"Always impeccable; Entrancing and highly seductive" – The Times
Winners of the Ernst von Siemens Ensemble Prize, Riot Ensemble connects people to great contemporary music in concerts and events that are just as innovative, vibrant and rewarding as the music itself. The members of Riot are some of the top European soloists in new music, and with Riot they work as performers, curators, commissioners, and collaborators, creating and producing a diverse array of projects.
Riot is particularly active in bringing emerging international voices to the British new-music scene and since 2012 has given over 250 World and UK premieres by composers from more than thirty-five countries. In 2024, their annual call for scores received more than 500 submissions, and in the past six years has resulted in more than twenty commissions.
