Natalie Davis Rooke Recital Hall
10:30 a.m.: Masterclass with pianist Karl Lutchmayer
7:30 p.m.: Guest Lecture/Recital with pianist Karl Lutchmayer
Karl Lutchmayer has found himself in great demand in 2011 as invitations to celebrate the Liszt Bicentenary have flooded in from 4 continents. Equally renowned as a pianist and lecturer, his innovative London lecture-recital series, Conversational Concerts, this year devoted to the music of Liszt, not only garnered critical acclaim, but was so oversubscribed that each event had to be repeated. He was also honoured to be invited by the Hungarian Cultural Centre to contribute to their own Liszt celebrations. Further performances took him to Mumbai, St. Petersburg, Oslo and New York, and he is currently preparing for engagements in Europe, India and Africa.
Karl is also a committed educator, lecturing at Trinity College of Music, London, where he is Professor of Performing Practice, and giving regular guest lectures at the Juilliard and Manhattan Schools in New York. He also retains piano professorships at Eltham College and the Ithaca College London Center and is in demand as a coach for young artists in their early careers. A prominent figure in the field of public music appreciation, he gives pre-concert talks at venues including the Wigmore Hall, writes a weekly classical music column for London Time Out, and has contributed articles to numerous magazines and books.
