Classical

Having played at venues including Wigmore Hall, St. John's Smiths Square, the V&A Museum and on the Goodwood estate in West Sussex, Tim is an experienced performer of solo, duo, and chamber repertoire. 

Having started his music education at the age of four, Tim has always had passion for great classical music, and especially the piano, having also studied the Clarinet and Recorder to beyond diploma standard.  Tim loves the vast diversity of repertoire which the piano offers and enjoys playing contrasting repertoire in performance, ranging from early Baroque music right up to jazz and modern music, as well as regularly performing his own compositions and arrangements.
