Champs Hill wins the 2014 RPS Award for Chamber Music and Song

The Music Room at Champs Hill, and Champs Hill Records were named as joint winners of the Royal Philharmonic Society's Award for Chamber Music and Song at a ceremony on 14 May 2014. The Music Room at Champs Hill in West Sussex was built 15 years ago by David and Mary Bowerman and has played host to many artists with particular support given to those at the beginnings of their career. This support has extended to the development of the Champs Hill Record label which for the last four years has released a series of recordings by young artists made at the hall. There are now 85 releases in the catalogue.

The most recent Champs Hill Records release is a boxed set of all the Mendelssohn string quartets, each quartet performed by a different young ensemble with the set featuring performances by the Benyounes, Ideomeneo, Sacconi, Navarra, Castalian, Piatti, Badke, Artea, Wu and Cavaleri String Quartets.
