Roy Howat Piano Recital: Chopin, Chabrier, Debussy, Fauré

We are absolutely thrilled to welcome internationally-acclaimed concert pianist and scholar, Roy Howat for an evening with composers including Chopin, Chabrier, Debussy and Fauré, as well as Ravel and possibly Bartok.

Scots-born Roy Howat enjoys an international career as concert pianist and scholar, with particular renown in the field of French music.

After taking a double first degree in Music at King’s College, Cambridge, Roy made a specialised study of French repertoire in Paris. At the same time, he undertook a doctorate on the music of Debussy, which formed the basis of his ground-breaking book Debussy in Proportion (Cambridge UP, 1983). He also played violin in various London chamber orchestras, and became one of the founding editors of the Paris-based Œuvres complètes de Claude Debussy, for which he edited most of Debussy’s solo piano music and some of his chamber music.

Roy is presently Keyboard Research Fellow at the Royal Academy of Music and Senior Professorial Research Fellow at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, as well as Visiting Professor at the University of Adelaide, and an Honorary Fellow of Jesus College Cambridge.
