As charismatic at the piano as he is at the lectern, Karl Lutchmayer is an arresting artist in whose inspiring performances musical virtuosity and intellectual profundity meet as equals.

Continually challenging tired expectations and reinvigorating jaded palettes, his dynamic recitals inspire colleagues, seasoned concert-goers and new audiences alike, whilst his pioneering Conversational Concerts draw audiences into the very heart of the music.

A writer as well - with a column in Time Out that makes even the most thorny musicological problems seem instantly approachable - Karl Lutchmayer’s 360° approach to musical artistry is truly redefining the nature of the 21st-Century musician.
