In 1966 he was a co-founder with Stephen Preston, flute and Anthony Pleeth, cello, of of the Galliard Harpsichord Trio. He toured with and played harpsichord on two recordings by The Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields.
In 1973, Pinnock expanded the trio and thereby founded the The English Concert, an ensemble devoted to the performance of music of the 17th and 18th centuries on original instruments. After 30 years as artistic director, Pinnock stepped down in 2003.
