Matthew Rickard, piano

Picture
Matthew Rickard studied at the University of Surrey and the Royal Academy of Music where he specialised in piano accompaniment. His teachers have included Michael Dussek and Clive Williamson. Matthew currently works as a freelance pianist and regularly gives performances as both chamber musician and soloist throughout the UK and abroad.

Over the past year or so Matthew has given concerts in London, France, Holland, Ireland, Birmingham, Bristol, Cambridge, Dorchester-on-Thames, Durham, Guildford, Oxford, Windsor and Woking. Matthew has recorded three CDs for the EM Records label with the violinist Rupert Marshall-Luck. Their first disc, featuring music by Bliss, Walford Davies and Bowen was described as “a complete success” by International Record Review, whilst another critic described the duo’s playing as “fiery, to the point of molten”. Matthew’s playing on the second disc, which contains music by Granville Bantock and Joseph Holbrooke was described by one critic as “heroically impressive”. Matthew has also recorded a disc of chamber music by contemporary composer John Pickard for the Toccata Classics label. Matthew has been instrumental in setting up a professional recital series at his local church, St. Peter’s in Old Woking. Matthew has also performed live on BBC Radio 3’s “In Tune” programme. 

As an orchestral pianist and accompanist Matthew has worked with groups such as the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, Moscow City Ballet, Constanza Chorus, Godalming Choral Society, Guildford Opera, Hart Voices, Lloyds Choir, Royal Free Music Society and the Rushmoor Choir. Matthew currently teaches the piano at Longacre Preparatory School in Surrey as well as having a private teaching practice.
