Hello,
Welcome to my website. My name is Nathan Giorgetti and I play the cello and viola da gamba. I am currently living in London, but perform and work all over!

A little about me:
I obtained my Masters degree from the Royal Academy of Music in 2023, where I was a Christopher Hogwood Scholarship holder and specialised in historical performance on the viola da gamba and baroque cello.
Since my time at the Academy I’ve had the pleasure of working with leading figures in the early music scene, including Philipe Herreweghe, Rachel Podger, Bjarte Eike, Michael Chance, Matthew Truscott and Pavlo Beznosiuk, as well as being accepted on the OAE’s Experience scheme. While at the Academy my string trio, the Tufnell Trio, won the Nancy Nuttall Early Music Prize and was selected for the BREMF Live Scheme, as well as the Philip and Dorothy Green Young Artists scheme.
In 2022 I co-founded Intesa, a viola da gamba duo, alongside Lucine Musaelian at the Royal Academy of Music, and were awarded the chamber music fellowship for 2023/24. Check out Intesa’s website here.
I’m also a core member of Bellot Ensemble, recently appointed as BBC Radio 3’s New Generation Baroque Ensemble.
In 2014 I founded the Vilalte Music Festival, a yearly chamber music festival in Southern France hosted in Mas Vilalte. The festival has been running for 7 years and has put on over 30 concerts.
When I am not playing music I enjoy photography, cooking, and exercising.
