Valerie Tryon (Piano)
Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (Ορχήστρα)Kenneth Woods (Μαέστρος)

British pianist Valerie Tryon and SOMM have embarked on a new, exciting venture. The three works recently recorded with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Kenneth Woods are soon to be followed by Rachmaninov’s First Piano Concerto (revised version), Richard Strauss’s Burlesque and Dohnanyi’s Variations on a Nursery Theme.

On this first disc Ms Tryon brings great experience and her special brand of artistry and musicianship to works for which she has great affection and which she has performed many a time over the years. This became apparent last year, during SOMM’s sessions at the Henry Wood Hall with the Royal Philharmonic and Ken Woods.

Valerie Tryon- biography Born in Portsmouth, Valerie Tryon’s career as a concert pianist began while she was still a child. Before she was twelve she had broadcast for the BBC and was appearing regularly before the public on the concert platform. She was one of the youngest students ever to be admitted to the Royal Academy of Music where she received the highest award in piano performance and a bursary which took her to Paris for study with Jacques Février.

Her place among Britain’s acknowledged artists was assured when a Cheltenham Festival recital brought her the enthusiastic acclaim of the country’s foremost critics. Since then she has played in most of the major concert halls, appearing with many of the leading orchestras and conductors worldwide. Her career has taken her to North America where she has appeared in such cities as Toronto, Montreal, Boston, Washington, Pittsburgh, Minneapolis, San Francisco and Los Angeles. She now lives in Canada but spends a part of each year in her native Britain.

Her repertoire is enormous and ranges from Bach to contemporary composers; it includes more than sixty concertos and a vast amount of chamber music. Among British composers, both the late Alun Hoddinott and John McCabe have dedicated works to her. She is well known for her sensitive interpretations of the romantics – Chopin, Liszt and Rachmaninov in particular. She also has an extensive discography ranging from Scarlatti, Chopin, Rachmaninov and Liszt to Debussy, Ravel and Ignaz Friedman.

Valerie Tryon has been awarded several distinctions for her services to music. She was an early recipient of the Harriet Cohen Medal. More recently the Liszt Memorial Medal was bestowed on her by the Hungarian Minister of Culture in recognition of her lifelong promotion of Liszt’s music.
