Classical Concerts in the Great Hall - Piano performance by Janusz Piotrowicz de Jagiellion
We are delighted to announce that we will be joined by world-renowned classical pianist Janusz Piotrowicz for an afternoon recital in the Great Hall, as part of a series of performances in historic venues across the country.
Janusz Piotrowicz, born in England of Polish refugees, is a prolific conductor and pianist.
He began piano lessons aged two with his Mother, gave his first public recital aged five and made his Rome début aged seven in the presence of Pope John XXIII
Aged eleven, he was offered scholarships to the Warsaw Conservatoire and Eton College, where he became the first Honorary Music Scholar in the history of the school. Tutored in the Heinrich Neuhaus tradition and gifted with an innate and profound musical understanding far beyond his years, he made his mark at Eton with epic recital programmes and was described as ‘a comet’ by his tutors. He also formed his own orchestra, initiating a personal discipline of conducting all rehearsals and concerts from memory
Whilst a Foundation Scholar at the Royal College of Music, where he was awarded the Worshipful Company of Musicians’ Medal for being the most distinguished student of his generation, he made his London recital début with the Brahms Paganini Variations and the Second and Third Sonatas of Chopin, performed Rachmaninov’s Third Piano Concerto at Windsor Castle, staged cycles of the complete Beethoven Piano Sonatas and Concertos in England, Poland and the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatoire, and won the Nawrocki Prize for the most poetic interpreter in the Warsaw International Chopin Competition
He has toured in Denmark, Italy, Poland, Russia, Spain, Switzerland, Canada, the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mauritius, and throughout the UK, receiving the highest tributes from critics for his qualities of poetry and sensitivity.
The morning’s program of music will begin at 2:00 pm. The performance will last approximately 1 hour, with tea or coffee and a slice of homemade cake to follow at 3:00 pm.
