Lisete da Silva Bull

Portuguese-born Lisete da Silva Bull studied baroque flute and recorder at the Royal Academy of Music and now performs, records and broadcasts with many of the leading period-instrument groups and orchestras in the UK, including the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Solomon’s Knot, Ex Cathedra, the Handel Orchestra, The Musical and Amicable Society and the Brook Street Band, of which she is a core member.

Her long-standing love of French Baroque and Rameau has taken her to PhD research with Graham Saddler and Shirley Thompson and she has published articles in publications in Holland and the UK.
