Internationally acclaimed for his "innate passion and virtuosity" and his "finely nuanced and captivating performances", Sam Haywood has now established himself as one of the leading pianists of his generation. Following his early successes in the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition and in receiving the Royal Philharmonic Society's prestigious Isserlis Award, he went on to study in Vienna with Paul Badura-Skoda and in London with Maria Curcio, the renowned pupil of Artur Schnabel.

Now based in Berlin, he has already performed to high critical acclaim in many of the major concert series and venues in Europe including Queen Elizabeth and Wigmore Halls, London; Konzerthaus, Vienna; CAMI Hall, New York; Salle d'UNESCO, Paris; Philharmonie, Berlin; Stadtcasino, Basel. In addition to his regular broadcasts for BBC Radio, Classic FM and Deutschland Radio, he has made numerous CD recordings.
