Christopher Horner is a classical violinist who offers concerts in duo with piano, guitar or solo violin. He has played throughout the UK, in Europe, Asia and South Africa and has played in a variety of venues such as St. David's Hall, Cardiff, music clubs, church halls and Indian hill stations. He is happy to adapt his programme choices to audience's preferences within his wide repertoire which ranges from Bach to Roxburgh.
