Biography
Peter is a London-based pianist, organist, clarinettist and Javanese gamelan player (Indonesian classical music) with performance experience across the UK & Indonesia, including the Royal Festival Hall, Royal Albert Hall, Cadogan Hall, Birmingham Symphony Hall, The Glasshouse (prev. Sage Gateshead) & the International Gamelan Festival in Java.
A particular passion of Peter's is to introduce classical music to younger generations, which he pursues as a member of the London Philharmonic Orchestra's New Generation Board. In addition to this, he regularly plays the organ for church services, performs piano/clarinet recitals and enjoys playing gamelan at the UK Indonesian Embassy and Southbank Centre. He is also a keen ultramarathon runner.
Peter obtained a First-Class Honours degree in Music from King's College London in 2020 (specialising in 18th-century music & dance, keyboard music from Bach to Beethoven, clarinet performance (with the Royal Academy of Music) and composition) and was awarded the Adam Prize in 2019 for receiving the highest marks in the Faculty of Music. Peter also holds diplomas for piano and clarinet performance from the Royal Schools of Music and Trinity College London.
