“Palisander – making recorders phenomenally interesting and exciting” Katie Derham

Palisander prides itself on presenting imaginative, historical programmes with a wide range of repertoire on recorders up to 6 feet tall. Devising their own choreography, as well as writing new compositions and unique arrangements for the ensemble, the group’s members are keen ambassadors for the recorder’s versatility.
