Sam has been writing music since the age of 17, but only when he performed at a school concert did he have the courage to start recording and releasing music. He has since been featured on BBC Wiltshire and Fantasy Radio as well as on multiple Spotify curated playlists, and has played on multiple stages and festivals up and down the UK, including the O2 Academy Bournemouth, The Fleece in Bristol, and Hat Fair in Winchester. ♫♪♪

Music for Piano Duet Saturday 02 April 2022 -- EVENT HAS PASSED
Venue:  St Mary's Church     map
Address:  Church Lane, Twyford, Hampshire, SO21 1NS
Event:  Music for Piano Duet - 4pm - In this afternoon concert, piano duo Jong-Gyung Park and Anthony Zerpa Falcon bring their musical dynamism to bear on a colourful selection of repertoire for four hands. The programme begins and ends with sparkling arrangements of two classic works, Beethoven's 5th Symphony and Gershwin's show-stopping Rhapsody in Blue. In between we have Schubert's great Fantasie in F Minor, and a rare chance to hear Airs of the Seasons, a sonata for piano duet by Ailsa Dixon, which remained unperformed until after she died in 2017. Premiered at St George's Bristol, it was hailed as 'most definitely a work by a British composer with an original musical vision... delightful and inventive, rich in imagination, moods and expression.' Its four movements, each prefaced in the score by a short poem, evoke in turn the magical stillness after a winter snowfall, the first stirrings of spring, a dragonfly darting over the water in summer, and finally a retrospective mood amid the turning leaves of autumn. Tea and cake will be served after the concert.
