Writing in 2017

‘It was for me a unique experience to be able to participate in the week of masterclasses with Imogen Cooper. Unique because of the teaching, so rich, so complete, so inspired coming from a pianist of world reputation, as sympathetic as she is gifted. Unique because we were only two pianists benefitting from the advice of Imogen Cooper during this week; and therefore we had the good luck of being able to spend much time with this wonderful pedagogue, working truly in depth. Unique because the living and working conditions favoured a complete and calm immersion in musical study: wonderfully looked after by our hosts, we had all the time in the world to play, in an environment that was both restful and inspiring. I can never thank Imogen Cooper enough for having chosen me to participate, nor can I be sufficiently grateful to the Imogen Cooper Music Trust that made this all possible.’

Writing in 2019

‘This was the second time I had the privilege of attending an ICMT masterclass course. I very much enjoyed the experience the first time and learned a great deal from Imogen’s deep artistic understanding. I was pleased to be invited back because not only did I get an opportunity to work with Imogen again, but I also had the added extra of benefitting from the great Felicity Lott’s inspiring advice. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity to learn from her distinguished career alongside my dear Adèle Charvet and another talented singer, Sarah Gilford. It was an ideal continuation of my time with ICMT as I am passionate about playing song. I am whole-heartedly grateful to the Trust for developing my skills to a greater level of artistry. Without these opportunities that have generously been offered to me I would not be the artist I am today.’
