Duncan Appleby

Additional Info:

I am a sensitive and expressive pianist with many years of collaborative experience.

As Head of Keyboard at a prestigious Surrey school I organised and performed in frequent student concerts, and I supported all the students with my flexibility and musicality.

At Dartington Summer School 2023 I worked on Schumann songs with an RAM soprano under the guidance of Anna Tilbrook and James Gilchrist in the advanced Art of Song class.

I studied with Kathron Sturrock and Roger Vignoles at the Royal College of Music, where I accompanied opera scenes, singing competitions and recitals.
I worked as Director of Music and Organist at St. Ninian's Episcopal Church in Edinburgh from 2013-2014, where I played music from many styles and eras, and improvised at the organ.

I have accompanied many singers and instrumentalists in challenging works like Schumann's Dichterliebe, Schubert's Die Schöne Müllerin, York Bowen's Sonata for Horn and Piano, and Hindemith's Sonata for Oboe and Piano.
