Elizabeth Gutteridge

Lizzie took up playing shawm as a part of the historical re-enactment movement to re-form Waits bands, then decided to pursue it further and make it her main occupation. She plays a wide range of historical instruments, including bagpipes, recorders, curtals and fiddles.

Amy Keller

Amy is studying music at Pembrook College, Cambridge where she is a choral scholar. Mainly playing keyboards, she also plays the viola and trombone (or sackbut in the Waits). She is a keen member of the Tudor enactors at Kentwell Hall where among the ancient skills she has learned she spends many hours turning things on a pole lathe.

Emma Mordue

Having had a varied career over the last 20 years Emma could be described as a multidisciplinary artist. Her work spans music and performing arts, as well as visual media.

She blames her love of early music on a workshop with the York Waits in the mid 90s, and so is delighted to now play recorders and shawms with The New Cambridge Waits.

Terry Mann

Terry studied early woodwind instrument making at the London College of Furniture in the 1980s. He now makes early woodwind instruments in his workshop near Cambridge. Meeting various like-minded players through the early music world, he decided to form the New Cambridge Waits in 2021 after enthusiastic encouragement from the Mayor of Cambridge's office

He plays early reeds, pipe and tabor and sackbut in the Waits.
