Biography

Sam Haywood regularly appears in many of the world’s major concert halls. He is equally at home with solo and chamber music repertoire, both on modern and period instruments. He has had a duo partnership with Joshua Bell since 2010.

After his early success in the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition, he studied in Vienna with Paul Badura-Skoda and in London with Maria Curcio. His recordings include two critically-acclaimed solo albums for Hyperion Records and an album of Chopin’s music performed on the composer’s own Pleyel instrument. He is the Artistic Director of the UK’s annual Solent Music Festival and this year curated a series of concerts, broadcast on BBC radio, for the Leeds International Chamber Music Season. He is also a composer and the inventor of memorystars®, an aid for memorising music.
