Double Image was formed in 1989 and soon established itself as a vibrant and versatile ensmble, specialising in the performance of music by women, and works by litel known or neglected composers. Their large repertoire ranges from the Viennese classic to music of today. They have performed the complete cycle of Beethoven trios on several occasions. A 10th anniversary celebration concert at St. John's Smith Square prompted a critic to remark that "Double Image is an important chamber ensemble in our musical life, of a standard all too rarely encountered today".

The ensemble enjoyed a 5-year residencey at the University of Southampton, and in 2001, were granted a "year of the Artist" award which enabled them to present a series of workshops and concerts for the University of the Third Age (U3A) in London.Double Image has appeared at all major venues in London and on Channel 4 TV.
