Scotch Piano Festival 2018

The Scotch College Piano Festival presented audiences with ten days of recitals and seminars as well as a piano concerto concert. Scotch piano teachers and guests, including Jayson Gillham, the London-based Australian pianist, performed some of the great works in the piano repertoire.

The concerto concert also featured a Scotch boy, who played the 2nd movement from the Greig Piano Concerto, while teachers Lachlan Redd and Teresa Lavers entertained with the Mozart Concerto for two pianos. Scotch students also performed in lunchtime recitals.
