Ishani Bhoola founded the charity The Waverley Ensemble in 2011 to bring high quality baroque music, performed by professional musicians in the Haslemere area, to the local community. In addition to performing great music, a core element of the venture is to bring the local community together through a shared love of classical music.
Families are able to attend concerts and hear great baroque music performed to a world-class level, in local churches and other venues.
Under the charity's name, Ishani also promotes concerts as an Artist Manager and has founded a number of educational projects such as International Youth Orchestra Bridges and the Haslemere International String Competition.
St. Christopher's Church Haslemere, a beautiful late gothic structure, was chosen as the principal concert venue and focal point for concerts. The church holds up to 150 people - with its wonderful acoustics, intimate setting, and central location, it provides a perfect setting for these concerts.
