MARK FIELDING
ProfessionalMembership
Mark Fielding studied the piano with Allan Schiller and composition with Robert Saxton at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. After gaining his AGSM Diploma, he won a scholarship to study on the Post-Diploma Accompaniment course. He also won the School Composition Prize and the Jenny Hyman Prize for outstanding chamber music playing.
Mark taught piano at the Junior Guildhall since 2005 and teaches at The Perse School, Cambridge, and was a regular examiner at Leeds College of Music for five years. Many of his students have gained success in exams and auditions for entry to music colleges and reached the final round in major competitions such as BBC Young Musician of the year and the Rachmaninoff International competition in Russia and the Tchaikovsky competition.
As a performer, Mark has played in most European countries and the US, Brazil, Mexico and Singapore. Performances in London have included several appearances in the Purcell Room and St. Martin-in-the-Fields. He made many broadcasts on radio three and Classic FM. He also made several CD recordings, notably the complete works of Szymanowski for violin and piano with the violinist Detlef Hahn. Mark has mainly specialised in chamber music and has been a member of the Mühlfeld Trio, Camerada and ‘The Ensemble of Madrid’. He has also been an accompanist and performer on music courses such as Dartington International Summer School since 1991 and the Mozarteum Summer Academy working with Ruggiero Ricci. He is interested in playing for cello as his sister Hilary is a professional cellist. This interest resulted in accompanying masterclasses and lessons with William Pleeth, Steven Isserlis, Maurice Gendron, Ralph Kirshbaum and Karine Georgian.
He has composed a series of books for children called ‘Allstyles’. Saxtetpublications have published his saxophone and clarinet pieces and quartets, and most recently, some of his pieces have been included in the ABRSM graded publications.
