Cloud Chamber

Caroline Dale (cello) and Gavin Greenaway (piano),  two of London’s most sought-after studio musicians, step out from behind the scenes to carve a new space for their own artistic expression as Cloud Chamber.

Their debut album Skylines, released in October 2026 reached number 6 in the UK Classical Albums Charts and gained over 500,000 streams within the first month of release. Grounded in both musicians’ decades of working in film music, every composition is shaped by a strong sense of narrative and atmosphere. Soaring melodies, rich harmonies and delicate textures guide the way, while the intimate dialogue between cello and piano creates a sound world that is at once cinematic, deeply personal and profoundly human. 

‘I have long admired Caroline’s magical ability to turn the simplest collection of notes into musical phrases full of meaning and emotion. So after one of our film score recording sessions when she said, “wouldn’t it be nice if we spent more time making music for ourselves?”, I was inspired and immediately began work – writing half a dozen pieces in a few weeks. From our very first run-through in Maida Vale, the music flowed effortlessly, and it was clear to me that we had to share the joy we felt playing together with a wider audience.’ – Gavin Greenaway

Emmy award winning composer, Gavin Greenaway has conducted over 200 film scores (Gladiator, How to Train Your Dragon, Wicked, Interstellar) and orchestral recordings for Sir George Martin and Sir Paul McCartney. He has composed music for the theatre, TV and film, as well as the Vancouver Winter Olympics, the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, songs with Bryan Adams and two solo albums of his own piano music. From 2018 to 2024 he was conductor of “The World of Hans Zimmer” arena show, leading the orchestra, choir and soloists in over 100 performances throughout Europe. 

Caroline Dale has a wide-ranging career both in the studio and on the live stage, performing with: the Nigel Kennedy and Balanescu Quartets, the English Chamber Orchestra, David Gilmour, David Gray, U2, and Sinead O’Connor; as concerto soloist with the LPO, RPO and RLPO; featuring on film scores, such as 1917, Atonement, Hilary and Jackie (about the life of Jacqueline du Pre) and Truly Madly Deeply. Her solo album Such Sweet Thunder combines classical repertoire with her own compositions. She led the cello section at the Coronation of King Charles III under the baton of Sir Antonio Pappano.
