Jeremy Pike Piano Celebration at Chetham's School
This year we are celebrating the 70th birthday of our Head of Composition, Dr Jeremy Pike, who has been a member of staff at Chetham’s since 1989.
Join us for dynamic solo performances by our talented pianists showcasing six decades of diverse and evocative keyboard compositions.
Members of the Chetham’s piano department will be marking this special year by giving performances of music he has written over the last sixty years – between the time he was 10 years old and the present day.
Following morning recitals given by our younger pupils, the 5.30 and 7.30 concerts will feature performances by our advanced students as well as by members of staff.
The programme will comprise around thirty short character pieces as well ​as several of his piano sonatas, including the dramatic sonata for piano and tape.
Jeremy Pike is known for the powerful, expressive qualities of his music and a belief that music should be always be accessible to audiences of all ages whilst also being stimulating and thought-provoking.
