‘The fearless champion of contemporary music for baroque violin.’

New music + period instruments. It’s not rocket science.

Inspiring over 150 new works for baroque violin, Ada is relentless in her drive to create a ‘New
Baroque’, breaking out of endless cycles of Bach partitas and Vivaldi concerti and pushing the boundaries of what is possible.

‘I love Bach and Biber as much as anyone, but there’s so much more life in period instruments than just music written 300 years ago; there’s so much more to say.’

Radio broadcasts with the BBC, Radio Soest (Netherlands), Argentina Classic National Radio,
Radiotelevisione Svissera, and Poznan Radio Klasyka have all featured Ada’s many new recordings, but it’s her bold music videos that have captured the imagination of composers, musicians and new audiences across the world from Peru to Thailand.
MMA cages, underground carparks, glamourous historic buildings, gothic churches; forget pretentious, this is for the new wave of classical audiences.

Ada’s latest commissions, on show during her 2023 USA tour, took audiences in Seattle and Portland by storm, encouraging frenzied discussion at the annual New Music Gathering (keynote by Caroline Shaw) and prompting countless entries to Ada’s revolutionary composition competition named after Czech harpsichordist and fellow new music-enthusiast Zuzana Ruzickova.

Collaborations with acclaimed period ensemble Florilegium, and a new solo album (to be released in late 2023), have come thick and fast, receiving invitations from the likes of São Paulo Contemporary Composers Festival for future seasons.
Other recent highlights have included appearances at the BBC Proms, solo performances of Viotti’s Sinfonia Concertante with Simon Standage at the English Haydn Festival amongst others.
