About the event
DOMINIC DOWNS
Dominic Downs is a pianist and composer, educated at the renowned Chetham’s School of Music and currently studying at the Royal Northern College of Music under Dr Murray McLachlan.
Dominic is a prize-winning and highly experienced live performer, with an extensive repertoire including piano concertos (currently Greig, Chopin 2 and Beethoven 3), together with a wide classical recital repertoire which enables him to present five different 60 minute programmes. He has been described on BBC1 as, ‘an extraordinary talent with a bright future ahead of him’, and has a large and growing fanbase.
Unusually for a classically trained pianist, Dominic is also an outstanding jazz pianist and improviser, performing solo gigs as well playing keys with the Sunrise Jazz Ensemble. Dominic has had residencies at leading hotels in NW England since the age of 14, and appearances at jazz festivals have widened his following.
