PAUL WATKINS is one of Britain's foremost cellists,
having performed as soloist with many of the world's finest
orchestras.

At the exceptionally young age of 20, Paul was appointed
principal cellist of the BBC Symphony Orchestra, a post he held
with great distinction for seven years.
A dedicated chamber musician, Paul is a member of the Nash
Ensemble. The Philadelphia Inquirer remarked during a
recent American tour: “his playing had such personality and
urgency”. He is also a highly talented conductor, and has worked
with orchestras both in this country and across Europe.
Paul is a Professor at both The Royal Academy of Music and The
Royal College of Music. He plays a cello made in Paris by Jean-Baptiste
Vuillaume.
