West Wight Arts Association concert
Rising superstar pianist Island born Thomas Luke, now studying at the Royal College of Music, will make a very welcome return to West Wight Arts Association on April 12th in the Memorial Hall, Freshwater with a solo piano recital starting at 7.00pm.
Hailed as a “trailblazer” by Steinway & Sons, Thomas Luke was the keyboard category winner of BBC Young Musician 2020. Equally adept at performing traditional concert repertoire as well as his own arrangements and compositions, he has performed worldwide and appeared on national television and radio.
Thomas has enjoyed great success recently, he was awarded the Prix Monti at the Piano Campus International Piano Competition in February and will return to the Piano Campus Festival in 2026 to perform a concerto as part of the award. He also won the Hopkinson Silver Medal and Peter Wallfisch Prize at the Royal College of Music’s Chappell Medal Piano Competition. He will play the Shostakovich Piano Quintet with the Piatti Quartet in Luton on March 17th following his collaboration with them for WWAA last season.
Thomas has given two full recitals for West Wight Arts Association before, in 2021 and 2023. In 2017 WWAA awarded him a bursary to help with travel up to the Junior Royal Academy of Music. We are delighted and proud to have him back.
He will play pieces by Bach, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Beethoven, Liszt, Scriabin and one of his own compositions.
Tickets at £16.00 (£2.00 children and students) are available from www.westwightarts.co.uk or Totland Parish Office on 756028, booking fee applies. Book soon
