Friday
Rush Hour Piano Recital – Helen Reid
A great way to start the weekend, sit down and
enjoy this one hour recital by pianist Helen
Reid!
Helen Reid first came to public attention when
she appeared on BBC2 in the National Keyboard
Finals of the BBC Young Musician competition
in 1998. In 2000 she won first prize in the
Karic International Piano Competition.
Helen has given recitals all over England, at
venues including the Wigmore Hall, Purcell Room,
Fairfield Halls and Blackheath Halls, London.
Helen’s solo repertoire is wide-ranging
and includes works from the 18th, 19th, 20th
and 21st centuries. In August 2003 she performed
at a Pre-Prom portrait of the composer Chen
Yi at the V&A, which was broadcast on BBC
Radio 3. Helen is currently professor of piano
at the Guildhall School of Music, Trinity College
of Music Junior Department and Leeds College
of Music.

Chopin, please visit www.helenreid.net
