SUMMARY:Simon Callaghan Recital
DESCRIPTION:Simon Callaghan\, Chetham’s alumnus\, performs internationally as a soloist and chamber musician\, in parallel with a highly successful career as a recording artist. A favourite performer at the internationally-renowned Husum Festival of Piano Rarities in Germany\, Callaghan’s recent sell-out concert was praised by VAN Magazine as a “cleverly curated recital full of discoveries” and by the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung as “technically brilliant”. Callaghan has developed a wide following and appears on a regular basis in the UK’s major concert halls\, and on tours to Asia\, North America and Europe. Recital partners have included Sheku Kanneh-Mason\, Nicholas Daniel\, Adrian Brendel\, Feng Ning\, Samuel West\, Prunella Scales and Timothy West. BBC Young Musician of the Year Finalist Coco Tomita and Callaghan have a successful duo partnership which saw their first record released in 2022 on Orchid Classics. He is also a founding member of the London Piano Quartet\, joining colleagues from the renowned Piatti Quartet to showcase the repertoire for piano quartet with a particular focus on revivifying works that have fallen into obscurity. \nSimon Callaghan’s distinguished and eclectic discography includes recordings for Hyperion\, Nimbus and Lyrita. He has a strong profile on BBC Radio3 and on a variety of streaming platforms\, his most recent single on Apple Music with Coco Tomita surpassing 1 million streams in the first month of its release. He is a strong social media enthusiast\, using it as a form of promotion for classical music in general but seeing it as a particular tool in his advocacy of the rare and unexplored. \n  \nGrieg | Holberg Suite Op.40 \nPoulenc | Les Soirées de Nazelles FP84 \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:Lecture Recital with Murray McLachlan
DESCRIPTION:Today Murray celebrates the 80th year of composer Edward Gregson. \nI have no hesitation in declaring Gregson to be one of the most significant British composers currently active in this country \nRobert Matthew-Walker\, International Record Review \nEdward Gregson was born in Sunderland\, Co Durham\, England\, in 1945. He graduated from London’s Royal Academy of Music in 1967\, having studied piano and composition (with Alan Bush)\, and then completed a B.Mus (Hons) degree at London University. He is a composer of international standing whose music has been performed\, broadcast\, and recorded worldwide. He has written orchestral\, chamber\, instrumental and choral music\, as well as making major contributions to the wind and brass repertoire. He has also written music for the theatre\, film\, and television. \nEdward Gregson has had an impressive career as an academic\, from his time as Head of Composition and resident conductor in the music department of Goldsmiths College\, University of London (1976-96)\, and where he was appointed a Professor of Music\, to his tenure as Principal of the Royal Northern College of Music (RNCM) in Manchester (1996-2008). He retired from academe in 2008 in order to concentrate on his composition. \nHis orchestral music has been performed by many orchestras and conductors worldwide\, including all the BBC orchestras\, the London Symphony\, Royal Scottish National\, Hallé\, Royal Liverpool Philharmonic\, and Bournemouth Symphony orchestras; with conductors such as Martyn Brabbins\, Edward Downes\, Rumon Gamba\, Alexander Gibson\, Gunther Herbig\, Kent Nagano\, Gianandrea Noseda\, Bramwell Tovey\, and soloists including Ole Edvard Antonsen\, Wissam Boustany\, Olivier Charlier\, Michael Collins\, Nelson Goerner\, Guy Johnston\, Nobuya Sugawa\, and Richard Watkins. \nSix Little Piano Pieces\nThree Etudes\nPiano Sonata \n \n
