Lydia Bosworth | Pianist
Sally Quantrill performs many recitals with the pianist Lydia Bosworth. They have been working together for many years and perform regularly around London and the South East. Sally and Lydia have built up a vast repertoire list ranging from baroque to present day music. Lydia Bosworth née Clatworthy, (piano) studied with Fanny Waterman in Leeds from the age of fourteen. After gaining a First Class degree in Mathematics from Newnham College, Cambridge she studied piano accompaniment with Michael Dusek at the Royal Academy of Music, winning prizes and gaining the Diploma of Advanced Studies and the LRAM. Lydia has performed as a concerto soloist, as a repetiteur for the National Youth Music Theatre, and as an official accompanist for the National Youth Orchestra. She has given many recitals throughout the country, including several under the auspices of the Countess of Munster Recital Scheme. In 1995, she was selected to take part in the BBC Radio 3 Young Artist Forum and gave a recital in the National Portrait Gallery which was broadcast on BBC Radio 3. Past recitals have included St. Martin-in the Fields, Hull and Leicester Universities and a series of concerts in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. "Quantrill and Clatworthy have established an easy rapport, and together banish all thoughts of a soloist-accompanist relationship; this is a genuine double act, with both commanding equal attention."
