Based in both London and Manchester, Lewis Kingsley Peart 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, 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.

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