Cordelia Williams, piano

Since becoming the Piano Winner of BBC Young Musician 2006, Cordelia Williams has continued to build an international career as one of the outstanding pianists of her generation. She has given recital and concerto performances throughout Great Britain, as well as in France, Italy, Norway, Austria, Thailand, China, America, Kenya and the Gulf States, and always likes to introduce the music to her audience. Her first CD, featuring Schubert’s complete Impromptus for SOMM Recordings, was released in July 2013. She will record a second CD, music by Schumann, during summer 2014.

Cordelia recently received an award from London’s prestigious new City Music Foundation, which she will use partly to develop a cross-arts project based on the music of Messiaen.
