Laurence Cummings

Laurence Cummings is one of Britain's most exciting and versatile exponents of historical performance both as a conductor and a harpsichord player. He is musical director at the Academy of Ancient Music and the Orquestra Barroca Casa da Música in Porto, and held artistic positions at the Internationale Händel-Festpiele Göttingen and the London Handel Festival. He works in both historical and modern performance practice with orchestras such as Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Zurich Kammerorchester, the Netherlands Bach Society and the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, and in opera houses such as The Royal Opera, English National Opera, Opernhaus Zurich, Oper Frankfurt and at the Glyndebourne Festival.
