About / Biography

Lewis Kingsley Peart enjoys a busy life as a working musician: organising projects as both soloist and collaborator, he programmes a wide variety of music from the traditional classical canon, right through to jazz and the avant-garde. With a strong background in theatre, his appearances are never without verve.

Lewis made his debut at St. John’s, Smith Square in March 2018 in a programme of music celebrating the 75th birthday of the American composer, Stephen Montague. In the summer of 2021, he had the privilege of working with British concert pianist and composer, Sir Stephen Hough, on his third piano sonata, "Trinitas", for the Trinity Laban New Lights Festival of Contemporary Music. Highlights of the 2022 season included a concert for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival at St. Mary’s Cathedral, and his debut recital at London’s St. Martin-in-the-Fields. In November 2023 Lewis made his concerto debut with the Wimbledon Symphony Orchestra in a performance of Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 23, K. 488. Highlights of the 2024 season included two performances of Grieg's Piano Concerto, and also his European debut with two solo recitals in Lanzarote. In March 2025 Lewis played Beethoven's "Emperor" concerto with the Angel Orchestra, and in April 2025 he gave the world premiere of Stephen Montague's "Scherzo in the Vienna Woods" - a new work that Lewis commissioned for solo piano. Lewis looks forward to future engagements both as recitalist and concerto soloist.

Lewis is a Chethams School of Music alumnus and graduate of London's Trinity Laban Conservatoire where he studied with Philip Fowke and Alisdair Hogarth.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

A real highlight for me was my concerto debut back in 2023 — I played Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 23, K. 488, and it was a big occasion for me. To be on stage with that sublime music, a great conductor and a wonderful orchestra was a total joy and privilege!

My favourite venue to date is probably the Laidlaw Music Centre at the University of St Andrews — the hall itself is a magnificent instrument, and I really felt that I was playing with the space, not just in it. They also have a very beautiful and responsive Steinway — the whole experience was unforgettable.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

I love listening to old recordings and pianists from “The Golden Age” of piano playing: Ignaz Friedman, Alfred Cortot, Shura Cherkassky, Eileen Joyce … I could go on! There’s such incredible spontaneity in their playing.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started playing professionally back in 2022, and since then I’ve been lucky to play all over the UK and beyond as a recitalist, concerto soloist and collaborative pianist.


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

I love to play all sorts venues and events, but my favourite is probably a solo recital — I love that immediacy of connection with an audience, and also the freedom and creativity of building my own recital programme.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I usually like to arrive at least 1-2 hours before the event so that I can have some time with the piano before the performance.


Are you happy to perform outside?

N/A


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?
