Alexis recently graduated from Trinity Laban where she studied with Richard Crabtree, Roger Chase and Sarah-Jane Bradley. During her postgraduate studies, she was a Trinity College London Scholar.

​

Alexis’ passion for orchestral playing has seen her involved in several orchestras, including the University of London Symphony Orchestra (for whom she was also Orchestral Manager), Trinity Laban Symphony Orchestra and the CBSO Youth Orchestra (where she gained a place in the summer of 2011, after she had only been playing viola for eight months). Alexis has also been invited to work with theatre orchestras, most notably in performances of ‘Die Fledermaus’ and ‘The King and I,’ where she led the orchestra.

​

Alexis plays principal viola in the Sam Jewison Orchestra. The orchestra was set up by fellow Trinity Laban student, Sam Jewison, and specialises in performing pieces by artists such as Cole Porter, Frank Sinatra and Gershwin in an authentic style. The orchestra was formed in 2016 and has performed at the Jazz Cafe and Blackheath Halls.

 

Alexis has a great love of chamber music, which was first sparked by attending summer courses with the Carducci Quartet. In her time at Trinity Laban, Alexis’ work with her quartet, formed in her first year, and quintet, formed in her second year, has significantly developed her interest and knowledge of chamber music. Alexis has also played in “Musical Opera” and “Crazy Quintet” CoLab projects at Trinity Laban, both of which involved her playing in chamber ensembles.
