Biography
Amélie Addison grew up in Gateshead and received her first cello lessons from Julia Watson through the local music service. She went on to study cello with Myra Chahin and Baroque cello with Alison McGillivray at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama, Glasgow, where she also participated in historically informed performances of Bach choral works with the Dunedin Consort under John Butt. Amélie was awarded scholarships to study Baroque cello and continuo with Susan Sheppard and Joseph Crouch at Trinity College of Music (2006-10)[1] and Dartington International Summer School (2008-9). ... She has performed as continuo cellist under Philip Thorby, Walter Reiter, Richard Egarr, Peter Holman, Robert Hollingworth and Paul Goodwin, and has also played with Linden, Suffolk and Essex Baroque Orchestras, for Ferdinand's Consort on their recording of early English cantatas, in the London Handel Festival, and recently for Rinaldo Consort's tour featuring Harry Enfield. Amélie founded Due Corde with violinist Anne Marie Christensen to explore improvisatory bass line realisation in 18th century string repertoire, and is continuo cellist of Dei Gratia, an emerging period instrument chamber ensemble specialising in sacred music. She now plays modern cello mainly for gospel outreach concerts and recordings (including performances at the Royal Albert Hall with the All Souls Orchestra, and Helen Shapiro’s latest album, 'What Wondrous Love is This', available from Manna Music www.mannamusic.co.uk ). Amélie has worked as a cello teacher, chamber music coach and community music practitioner in the North East, Scotland and Essex, and currently teaches cello privately and for Lewisham Music Service.
