With and without the Chamber Ensemble of London, Peter Fisher has worked many times with members of the Dankworth family. He has appeared with Sir John Dankworth, Dame Cleo Laine, Avril Dankworth and Jacqui Dankworth at Wavendon Garden Festival and at the Royal Albert Hall.

John Dankworth composed Mariposas for solo violin and string orchestra specially for Peter and the CEOL. This alludes to the playing styles of three jazz violinists: Stuff Smith, Joe Venuti and Stephane Grappelli. John also made a version of this for violin and piano which Peter has played at recitals.

Peter will be playing a solo concert at Wavendon on 17th July, full details of this performance can be found here.
