This prestigious interdisciplinary symposium is the first of its kind and has three objectives:
- to bring together performers and scientists to kindle a renaissance in twenty-first century piano performance through an examination of the skills that underpin piano performance;
- to generate a more rigorous and effective approach to performing and teaching, a step that is long overdue;
- to use the research findings to develop outreach programmes in less-advantaged areas of London, for the benefit of young people who would otherwise never have the opportunity to enjoy the enriching experience of learning an instrument as powerful as the piano with its enormous potential for self expression and creativeness.
The success of this unique event can only be accomplished through the generosity and support of individuals, companies and charitable trusts.

Hi,
I am pianist and since I have heard that during October will be held the London International Piano Symposium at the Steinway Hall, I decided that I want to attend to this event. But browsing your website I didn’t find any information about this event during October . What about the programm, the costs? Are there 2 sessions of London International Piano Symposium or there is only an unique one in February? ( for february I could see all the programs details). Which is the difference between the two events? What are the costs of atttending in february?
Dear Scutteri
The event at Steinway Hall is to launch the symposium and to raise money. Do come cristine
