Our music club has been very successful in recent years in bringing thrilling concerts by  rising stars of the piano to Buxted  and this year looks like being no exception. Amiri Harewood has been selected as a Grand Prize winner of the Young Classical Artist Trust and Concert Artists Guild International Auditions in May 2024. He  has since been named a Classic FM Rising Star for 2025, while  performing throughout the UK.

Over the 2025/26 season Amiri’s career shows no signs of slowing down as he makes his debut at the Concertgebouw Amsterdam and Berlin Konzerthaus, returns to Wigmore Hall and makes his North American debut with a tour including recitals in Chicago and New York.

Amiri’s Royal Festival Hall concerto debut with Chineke! Orchestra was universally acclaimed.
