James Lisney

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

James Lisney (born 6 May 1962) is an international concert pianist. He was a prize-winning graduate of the Royal College of Music where he studied with Phyllis Sellick and John Barstow – and early success was achieved after he gained representation by the Young Concert Artists Trust.

He then went on to play as soloist and has gained particular distinction for his collaborative work with many major orchestras and artists.

Since 2000 he has pioneered two major initiatives: an innovative series of concerts at London's South Bank called Schubertreise; and a record company called Woodhouse Editions to add to his previous discography on companies such as BIS, Olympia, Carlton and Somm.
