Gabriela Demeterova Collegium
Between 1995 - 2005, was Gabriela a soloist and artistic director of the Czech Philharmonic Collegium, her chamber ensemble. Its focus was performing baroque music and little-known pieces of Czech composers.
In June 2005, Gabriela founded Gabriela Demeterova Collegium. She is the soloist and artistic director of this ensemble. Gabriela performs with this ensemble very often. Besides classical performances of Vivaldi’s, Bach’s and other baroque composers Violin Concertos she performs on occasions all six Brandenburg Concertos by J. S. Bach, being not only conductor, artistic leader and violin soloist but also viola soloist in concerto N. 6. She performed this score with great success in Prague as a part of The Prague Symphony Orchestra’s Chamber Series in 2011 and in 2014-2015 with Hradec Kralove Philharmonic Orchestra at their Concert Series.
After moving permanently to Great Britain in 2013, she started to relocate her G.D. Collegium there, working with British, in baroque music specialising, colleagues.

Japan Tour Live

Track 05 - P. I. Tchaikovsky - Valse - Scherzo in C Major - Live - Tokyo - Japan

A full orchestral version of the National Song of the Cayman Islands. Composed in 1930 by Leila Ross-Shier in a parlor waltz style, it was regarded unofficially as the country's National Song for decades and was adopted officially as that in 1993. The nation has lacked a version that can be played at official and international events. I was commissioned by Ross-Shier's family to create something that would be representative of the beauty of the Song and the nation. It was recorded by the Northwest Sinfonia in Seattle and conducted by me.
