8.30pm – Murray McLachlan

‘Murray McLachlan is a pianist with a virtuoso technique and a sure sense of line. His timing and phrasing are impeccable, and his tone-full but unforced in the powerful passages, gentle and restrained in the more lyrical- is a perpetual delight’ – (BBC music magazine)

In great demand as a speaker Murray has recently travelled to China, U.S.A, Malaysia, Japan and Iceland giving recitals and presentations to performers and teachers.
