Corey Wickens, Leader

Corey works as a violinist both in the UK and internationally. She plays in many different orchestras, ensembles and as a soloist. She has played with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra and the Brighton Philharmonic Orchestra and plays with the London Musical Theatre Orchestra. She performed with Ed Sheeran at the Royal Variety Performance 2021 and was part of the string section for Michael Bublé’s UK leg of his ‘Higher’ tour throughout July 2022. She has done some filming work on series such as ‘Bridgerton’ and ‘The Crown’ for Netflix. 

Her love of musical theatre has lead her to performing in the West End and she plays as a deputy on ‘Dear Evan Hansen’ and Disney’s ‘Frozen The Musical’ at the Drury Lane Theatre as well as ‘A Christmas Carol’ at The Old Vic theatre over the holiday season.

She also enjoys session and recording work, playing on various albums and for functions and weddings. In her spare time, she is part of the Cancer Research UK South East fund-raising committee and looks after helping book entertainment for their events and running social media accounts. LGSO has been a joy to be part of and Corey wants to thank the orchestra and all its members for their hard work, amazing spirit and friendship.
