Since her graduation from The Royal Academy of Music in 2000 she has been in demand with ensembles in the UK and continental Europe. She is principal horn of Harry Christopher’s The Orchestra of the Sixteen and The Avison Ensemble and has frequently worked as principal horn with The English Baroque Soloists, The English Concert, Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique, Freiburg Baroque, The Early Opera Company, Concerto Caledonia and The Mahler Chamber Orchestra.
For many years she has had a keen interest in chamber music which led to her becoming a founder member of The Etesian Ensemble. Through this ensemble she met the fortepianist Kathryn Cok with whom she formed a duo specialising in classical and romantic repertoire for horn and fortepiano. Kathryn and Anneke have recently been selected as two of Makng Music’s Concert Promoters Network Artists for 2008/2009.
An integral element of Anneke Scott’s career has been research. During 2005-2006 she undertook research at the University of Birmingham’s Centre for Early Music Performance where she currently teaches period horns. In 2005 she received the great privilege of being invited by The Bate Collection, Oxford to perform in concert on one of their magnificent original Hofmaster horns dating from the mid 18th century and in 2006 was interviewed by BBC TV for the BBC2 series The People’s Museum discussing the Hofmaster horns housed at Edinburgh University.
At the other end of the spectrum she has performed with the specialist contemporary music ensemble The London Sinfonietta and can be heard on two albums with The Nigel Waddington Big Band.
In 2007 Anneke was elected an Associate of the Royal Academy of Music, an honour awarded to past students of the Academy who have distinguished themselves in the music profession and made a significant contribution to their field.
