Radius
"An enviable assortment of gifted young players"
Radius - founded by Tim Benjamin - specialise in the performance of new music from around the world written by living composers, together with works by 20th-century masters. The ensemble is comprised of outstanding young international concert artists, and aims to showcase their individual talent both as soloists and together, performing new music to the highest possible standard. Critically acclaimed by the national and musical press, Radius have appeared at London's Wigmore Hall and Southbank Centre, at festivals including the 2007 London Design Festival, and have given the first performances of more than ten new works.

Call for Proposals
Radius operate an ongoing call for performance proposals. We are keen to hear from composers, promoters, and publishers, as well as from other potential collaborators. We are particularly interested to:
- Perform works which have already been performed, and which are scored for at least four of our core group;
- Receive proposals from collaborators (e.g. dance, video) for half or whole concerts or other public events.
