About
Founded in 2011, Constella Music is the creative powerhouse behind the award-winning composer and conductor Leo Geyer. Constella publishes and performs Geyer’s works, which span opera, dance, film, and concert music, and serves as a production company for his growing portfolio in broadcast presenting.
​
Collaboration lies at the heart of our organisation, bringing together pioneering professional musicians and dancers, as well as partnerships with visual artists, poets, historians, garden designers, architects, scientists, healthcare workers, and more. The driving force behind Constella Music is harnessing the expressive power of music for social good.
​
Constella is currently undertaking a major project to restore and perform long-forgotten music written in Auschwitz. This includes the Sky Arts documentary-film, The Lost Music of Auschwitz which has been hailed by the press, such as the Financial Times, describing it as "profoundly moving". We have given performances of music from Auschwitz in London, Paris, and Amsterdam, and released a recording on YouTube, which garnered worldwide news coverage.
The next phase of this project will be a new opera-ballet commemorating 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz, premiering in June 2025. The production will be choreographed by the internationally acclaimed Claudia Schreier, with restored music performed by Constella Music. Tickets can be purchased here.
Geyer’s catalogue has been published by Constella and is available on Nkoda. This has led to performances of our publications by Opera Holland Park, London Sinfonietta, the Elmore Quartet, Theater Aachen, and others. Last year, Constella also premiered new music by Leo Geyer at both the Science Museum, the Courtauld Gallery. Constella and is making a recording of Geyer’s restoration of the live cinema orchestra score for the Ukrainian silent film Man with a Movie Camera, following the recent premiere with the Luxembourg Kammerata.
At Constella, we believe everyone has the right to enjoy and participate in music. Our award-winning virtual performance program, Connecting Stars, has provided over 2,000 bespoke music and dance performances for the UK’s most vulnerable individuals. As part of this initiative, we are delivering a program for students and emerging artists to increase access for diverse young people entering the performing arts. ​This year also marks the founding of the Constella Philharmonic, a new orchestra that offers non-professional musicians opportunities to participate in professional-level performances.
