Claire Booth is a singer celebrated around the world for her distinctive and characterful voice and the relentless curiosity in the range of work she presents. In recent years she has become a frequent collaborator with Ensemble 360, including a much-lauded CD release Pierrot Portraits. As they prepare for Sheffield Chamber Music Festival 2026, of which Claire is Guest Curator, they present a dazzling evening of French chamber music.
