Leo Duarte
Leo began studying the modern oboe at the age of fifteen with Josephine Lively and subsequently, with Christopher O'Neal. He went on to study with Celia Nicklin, Tess Miller and Emanuel Abbühl whilst continuing his education at the Royal Academy of Music. Currently, Leo is studying Baroque Oboe alongside other early oboes with James Eastaway (Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique) and Katharina Sprecklesen (The English Concert & Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra) whilst furthering his studies at the Historical Performance Department of the Royal Academy of Music, London. As a historical oboist Leo has played for, among others, Paul McCreesh with The Gabrieli Consort & Players, Rachel Podger, Lawrence Cummings and Sir John Eliot Gardiner. This is the field in which Leo is most active and he has a particular passion for performing the music of the late Romantic period on the appropriate instruments and with the required style.
