An Opportunity to Sponsor a World-Class Piano Symposium

The first global symposium, hosted by the Royal College of Music in 2013, was an enormous success. Researchers and performers came from around the world to present papers to address a wide range of issues concerning piano performance. It was underwritten in part by the founder & director, Cristine MacKie, musicologist & performance tutor at Royal Holloway, University of London, – then,  the No 1 music dept in the UK.

With recent developments in neuroscience and medicine, our objective  now, is to provide symposia on issues such embodiment, or the body to brain link – a much misunderstood issue in musical education – produce publications, stream  our events to the music conservatoires and universities of Europe, North America, and the wider world.  However, this cannot be achieved without the support and funding of  friends.

Thus, we would like to warmly welcome you  to become a friend of  the London International Piano Symposium by:

donating a minimum of  £50-250 per annum

For this, when we hold an event, you will be given:

  • Priority booking
  • An invitation to rehearsals
  • A reception hosted by the LIPS Director
  • An acknowledgement on the website.
