Psappha (ensemble)

Psappha was an ensemble of contemporary classical musicians based in Manchester in the North West of England, specialised in the performance of works by living composers. Founded in 1991 by artistic director Tim Williams, the ensemble moved into a new home in 2015, St Michael's, Ancoats, Manchester.[1] The ensemble had a core instrumentation of flute, clarinet, piano, percussion, violin, viola and cello.[1]

Psappha closed in November 2023 due to Arts Council England withdrawing 100% of its regular funding to the ensemble. [2]
