Viv McLean Piano Recital
Viv came to Wilton's on our last open day and played our lovely Bluthner piano for free. He has since curated a super romantic evening of pieces for us. Our new wine list will be up and running and Bliss Catering will be bringing their delicious tapas.
Viv McLean studied at the Royal Academy of Music where he held the Hodgson Fellowship and received financial assistance from the Hattori Foundation and the Countess of Munster Musical Trust. He made his Wigmore Hall recital debut through winning the Friends of the Royal Academy Wigmore Award. Whilst studying at the Academy, Viv was the piano winner at the Royal Overseas-League Music Competition and was selected as one of three winners of the National Federation of Music Societies' Young Artists Competition, leading to various recitals and concerto appearances throughout
