Pam Chowhan (piano)

Described by Strad magazine as “the doyen of British cellists” and widely regarded as one of the finest musicians of his generation, Julian Lloyd Webber enjoys one of the most creative and successful careers in classical music today. He is a vice-president of the Delius Society.

His many recordings have received worldwide acclaim. His Brit-award winning Elgar Concerto conducted by Yehudi Menuhin was chosen as the finest ever version by BBC Music Magazine and his coupling of Britten’s Cello Symphony and Walton’s Concerto was described by Gramophone magazine as being beyond any rival.

Born in India, Pam Chowhan has performed/recorded in an astonishingly diverse range of style and genre. She is a highly successful arranger, currently working on string arrangements for an album of classical Indian mandolin, and is Head of Planning in the Artistic Programming Department at the Royal Festival Hall.

She is a superbly accomplished pianist and the perfect musical partner for the intense lyricism and thrilling panache of Julian Lloyd Webber’s playing.
