The London International Piano Symposium
The London International Piano Symposium (LIPS) is committed to enabling world-leading research at the interface between the sciences, and the art of piano performance.
While music is undeniably a cultural phenomenon, our musicality is also grounded in our biology, thus, we need to draw on the sciences to address music’s biological materiality; and, at the same time we must be aware of the distinctive and discursive properties that are embodied in the music of different cultures.
Our conferences bring together pianists, pedagogues, and researchers from around the world to enjoy carefully curated single-track series of interesting talks on all aspects of piano performance.
ANNOUNCEMENT
The committee of the London International Piano Symposium London International Piano Symposium takes the health and well being of its team very seriously and therefore, with great reluctance, has decided to cancel the fourth symposium due to be held in October this year (2021). We ask that you do understand that this is because of the outbreak of Corona Virus (Covid-19). We will wait until evidence is provided by the health authorities that we can continue safely, and provide once again a full and enriching experience for all our researchers and performers who attend from around the world.
