Beth is passionate about collaboration across artistic genres. This spirit of innovation is at the heart of her company, Musici Ireland, an acclaimed Chamber Collective and interdisciplinary production house. She studied at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama and the Royal Academy of Music, and has performed for the London Symphony Orchestra, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, and Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. She has appeared in principal viola positions with the Irish National Opera, Wexford Festival Opera, English National Ballet, Ulster Orchestra, and the National Symphony Orchestra of Ireland. In the past couple of years, Beth has made her directorial debut with two major Musici Ireland productions: A Mother’s Voice, a multi-media performance honouring women affected by Ireland’s Mother-and-Baby homes, and Chronically Hopeful, an interdisciplinary work, exploring themes of invisible disability through music, movement and spoken word.
