Freya plays in several ensembles within Trinity Laban, including the Trinity Laban Symphony Orchestra; recent performances include Richard Strauss' Also Sprach Zarathustra at Cadogan Hall and a side by side concert with members of the Philharmonia. A keen chamber musician, Freya is a member of the Bellazona Brass Quintet, with whom she regularly performs in professional and educational engagements. She has performed with the GMT Brass Ensemble and numerous wind quintets, both within and outside of Trinity Laban. In August 2015 Freya was invited to play as Principal Horn with the Edinburgh Youth Orchestra Chamber Orchestra on their summer tour, which was conducted by Julian Lloyd Webber. Freya regularly performs, and has recorded with, the London City Orchestra; in September 2015 she successfully auditioned for the role of Principal horn for their 2015/2016 Season under their Professional Development Programme. Freya has also played in a variety of other orchestral ensembles since she moved to London, including the Oberon Orchestra, King's College London Symphony Orchestra and Chamber Orchestra, Ensemble Novus, and as Guest Principal horn of King's Opera.
