St. Michael’s welcomes Alexander in a break from his busy schedule as an internationally renowned soloist and chamber musician, to bring us this special event as part of our Stewardship Campaign.
About Alexander-
Appreciated for the sensitivity and integrity of his interpretations,
Alexander Boyd enjoys a busy career as both soloist and chamber
Born in 1972 he made his Concerto debut in 1983 with the BBC Scottish
Symphony Orchestra, and since his London Wigmore Hall debut in 2001
he has frequently performed at the UK and Australia’s leading recital
halls, as well as giving concerts and appearing in international music
festivals in the US, Canada and throughout Europe.
Recordings include works by Chopin, Debussy and Schumann for the
Abbas and Chartreuse record labels and more recently a recording of
the Iberia Suite by Albeniz for Claudio Records and Naxos, due to be
released in late 2015. He has also broadcast on numerous occasions for
ABC and BBC Radio amongst others.
2015/16 includes recital engagements in the UK, Australia and the USA
as well as performances with cellist and brother Nathaniel Boyd, cellist
Richard Jenkinson, and the Navarra String Quartet.
Alexander is also passionate about teaching and is on the staff at the
Guildhall School of Music and Drama and is a visiting lecturer at the
University of Birmingham.
Award winning radio and TV presenter Iain Lee picks some of the most hilarious moments from the history of the wireless.
Why did Nicky Campbell drop himself in it when talking about foxes? What do callers to local radio REALLY think about Mayor Boris Johnson and surely old lady professors know what you can and what you most definitely can’t say on the radio?
Despite appearing on radio (Five Live, Radio 4, XFM, BBC 3 Counties) and TV (The 11 O’Clock Show, This Morning, Big Brothers Bit On The Side) for over fifteen years, this is Iain’s first solo show. Should be a right old laugh.
A concert for a Summer’s Eve.
Proceeds to Waterlow Park and The Harington Scheme.
Tickets can be purchased at Brooksby Newsagent in Highgate Village or via tickettailor on: http://www.waterlowpark.org.uk (online booking fees apply).

In another little step back to the ethos of the London Novello Ensemble – which is the presentation of great music outside the formal constraints of the concert hall – Murray and Gavin present the two opposites of late 19th century romanticism along with music by Delius, Vitali and Sarasate, and a selection of popular tangos including Piazzolla’s famous ‘Libertango’
Gavin Davies studied the violin with Marta Eitler and at the Royal College of Music with Jaroslav Vanecek and Natasha Boyarsky. He combines a freelance orchestral career with ensembles such as the London Philharmonic and BBC Concert orchestras with regular chamber music and solo performances.
Murray Hipkin is a fulltime member of the music staff at English National Opera, where he has conducted The Mikado, The Gondoliers, The Pirates of Penzance, Kismet, Carousel, Chess and Man of la Mancha. He is musical director of the Pink Singers and the North London Chorus and he recently finished filming Anyone Can Sing for ENO/Sky Arts in the role of music supervisor and accompanist.
Programme to include:
Brahms – Sonata No. 1 in G
Liszt – Romance
Delius – Sonata No. 3
Vitali – Chaconne
Sarasate – Zigeunerweisen
Tangos by Albeniz, Gade, and Piazzolla

Tamas Szigyarto, London-based pianist and composer, presents selected works from two original piano cycles: There Will Be Rainbow and Cone Of Silence, recently released by Navona and Oclassica labels respectively.
The two works, written in neo-romantic style with a touch of impressionism, present a musical dyad. There Will Be Rainbow is bright and optimistic whereas Cone Of Silence reflects on the darker themes of solitude and melancholy. Both cycles accumulate material written over the past decade. Finally, there will be performance of piano poem Blue Hour written by Tamas and his creative partner, pianist and composer, Elena Oleynik.
