Alexander Boyd: Ballade of a pianist


Listen Later

A celebrated pianist, Alexander Boyd is appreciated for his sensitivity and the integrity of his interpretations. He made his concerto debut at the age of just 11 with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra. He’s since performed at London’s Wigmore Hall and St Martins in the Fields, as well as throughout Europe, the US and Australia. He’s also a composer, having written music for three films.

He has a pair of new albums out in March, one of Chopin's Ballades and other works, the other an album of Fandangos. Alexander talks about the development of these albums, and also gives some lovely insights into the life of a professional pianist.
