Overview
Two important competition wins in 1993 laid the foundation for a career that has recently seen Leon McCawley described as ‘one of today’s most impeccably musical pianists’ (International Piano). Amongst a wide discography, Chopin, Schubert and especially McCawley’s Haydn series have been notable successes.
