Winner of the London International Piano Competition
Hot off the press – the very recent winner of the 2009 London International Piano Competition shows how he impressed judges at the Royal Festival Hall. Recent winners of the competition have included artists such as Simon Trpceski, Paul Lewis, Leon McCawley, Ashley Wass and Herbert Schuch who have all emerged to careers of international stature. Do join us to hear the very impressive Behzod Abduraimov on his journey to the world-wide stage.

'The winner was an 18-year-old Uzbek named Bezhod Abduraimov, whose electrifying delivery of Prokofiev's exuberant Third Piano Concerto left no room for doubt as to where the first prize should go. With hands springing off the keys in the big staccato chords faster than the eye could register, and with his body almost levitating with excitement, he combined unbridled joy with a hugely impressive technical control.'
