Ingrid Sawers A graduate of the University of Edinburgh, accomplished pianist and chamber musician Ingrid Sawers is equally at home collaborating in instrumental and vocal repertoire, and has performed at both the Oxford Lieder Festival and the World Saxophone Congress, as well as numerous venues throughout the UK, Europe and in Canada. She has partnered many fine musicians either in concert or live BBC broadcast, played for HM King Charles at the Palace of Holyroodhouse, and toured with broadcaster/writer John Suchet. She is a passionate advocate for new music, having premiered works by composers including Judith Bingham, Graham Fitkin, Martin Butler, and Thomas Adès but equally delights in established repertoire and rediscovering pieces from archive research. Her teachers included Roger Vignoles and Paul Hamburger and she now runs a thriving teaching and coaching studio, travels worldwide as an examiner for ABRSM, and coaches in the vocal studies department at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. Her recording with cellist Alexandra Mackenzie, Beyond Twilight: Music for Cello and Piano by female composers (Delphian Records), gained a place in the Official Classical Top 20 Chart on its release in October 2023. www.ingridsawers.co.uk
