Rhiannon, originally from Cumbria, began learning the viola aged 14. She went on to study at the Royal Northern College of Music and in July 2014 she completed the RNCM`s International Artist Diploma in Chamber Music, the RNCM`s highest performance award.

She is an experienced teacher and as well as teaching privately, she teaches both violin and viola at Sedbergh School in Cumbria and at Stockport School.

As a chamber musician Rhiannon has played in venues such as Wigmore Hall, St John`s Smith Square, St Martin in the Fields and Rachmaninov Hall in Moscow Conservatory. She has also been broadcast numerous times on BBC Radio 3 including a live broadcast and has featured on national Russian television. She also plays regularly with the Manchester Camerata orchestra, recently enjoying opening up the main stage of Glastonbury Festival with Hacienda Classical.

Rhiannon now plays in and is Orchestra Manager for Kaleidoscope Orchestra, a 21st Century orchestra who’s aim is to mix up genres of music and challenge perceptions about classical music and classical musicians. She is also a member of Leos Strings who have recently completed a month long tour of Germany with Simon & Garfunkel by Bookends.
