After reading History at UCL, Charlotte was offered a postgraduate scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music, where she studied recorder with Anna Stegmann and baroque violin with Nicolette Moonen.
In 2012, Charlotte became the first recorder player to win the BBC Young Musician's woodwind category and perform as a concerto finalist. Later highlights have included projects with the English Chamber Orchestra and Academy of Ancient Music, recitals across the UK and internationally, appearances on Radio 3’s In Tune and Early Music Show, and multiple composer collaborations.
A keen ensemble musician, Charlotte co-founded Parandrus in 2017. With repertoire spanning from the 12th Century to new commissions, the ensemble has won awards in the UK and the Netherlands, and has been featured on BBC Radio 3’s Early Music Show and Early Music Now.
As a violinist, Charlotte is a founding member of the Chineke! Orchestra. She has also performed as a session musician with The Good, the Bad and the Queen on Later with Jools Holland, and with Yebba and Mark Ronson on Strictly Come Dancing.
Alongside performing, Charlotte has written programme notes for the Chineke! Orchestra's concert audiences since 2018, and has twice been a guest presenter on BBC Radio 3’s Inside Music.
