Colin Alexander is a cellist and composer whose work moves fluidly across musical styles and disciplines. Alongside collaborations with artists including Kit Downes, Héloïse Werner and Abel Selaocoe, he performs with ensembles such as 12 Ensemble, Phaedra Ensemble and United Strings of Europe.
As a composer, he has written for organisations including the London Philharmonic Orchestra and London Contemporary Orchestra.
