The London International Piano Symposium, February 2015
Welcome to The Art and Science of Piano Performance, an interdisciplinary symposium for the enhancement of teaching and performance in the twenty-first century.
The second of three, three-day London International Piano Symposium will be held in London in February 2015. We warmly welcome everyone interested in the performance of piano music: performers, scientists, academics, teachers, young people, and all those who love just to listen. For the first time these symposia will provide an opportunity to hear papers, lecture recitals and debates on the art and science of piano performance by distinguished researchers and practitioners.
Background:
In recent years ‘performance science’ has created an umbrella under which ideas and research from a wide range of scientific and musical fields are being encouraged to create a more unified approach to musical performance. This second symposium will bring world class performers and scientists together to discuss the role of the mind, body and soul in preparing for performance.
