“One of today’s most impeccably musical pianists.” International Piano, January/February 2021
Praised for his unfailingly communicative playing, British pianist Leon McCawley has been delighting audiences worldwide since winning, in 1993, First Prize in the International Beethoven Piano Competition in Vienna and Second Prize at the Leeds International Piano Competition. Leon studied at Chetham’s School of Music before continuing his studies at the Curtis Institute of Music, Philadelphia.
His many concert performances and extensive and award winning discography have established him as a pianist of great integrity and variety, bringing freshness and vitality to Classical, Romantic and 20th century repertoire. He has performed at the BBC proms and with many leading British orchestras and internationally acclaimed conductors. He can frequently be heard on BBC Radio 3, in interview and recital, and has been professor of piano at London’s Royal College of Music since 2008.
