Catherine Sutherland (violone) after graduating in Music with Education studies from Homerton College in 2004, she has continued to play regularly in a wide variety of ensembles in Cambridge alongside her career in special collections librarianship. Her opera experience includes performances of Handel’s Xerxes and Gluck’s Orfeo ed Euridice through to Jonathan Dove’s Siren Song, via Mozart, Puccini, Vaughan Williams, Milhaud, Hindemith and Britten.  Although the clarinet is her first instrument, she is in demand as a double bassist, and notable highlights have included performing at the Rudolfinum in Prague, the Royal Festival Hall under the baton of Marin Alsop as part of the annual Women of the World Festival, and Elgar’s Dream of Gerontius.  Catherine also plays the viola da gamba and performs with the Cambridge University Viol Consort.
