Each year\, the Festival welcomes piano players and pedagogues\, experts and enthusiasts\, to some of Oxford’s most historic venues\, such as Sir Christopher Wren’s Sheldonian Theatre\, the Holywell Music Room\, and Christ Church Cathedral. \n\n\n\nThe Oxford Piano Festival takes place in the last week of July on the tranquil and scenic campus of St Hilda’s College\, Oxford\, home of the Jacqueline du Pré Music Building\, and located just a short walk from the city centre. \n\n\n\nThe Oxford Piano Festival’s objective is simple: to inspire\, support and encourage music-making at the piano of the highest quality. Welcoming world-renowned soloists and teachers each year\, the Festival provides gifted young players with a rare opportunity to work alongside and learn from some of the world’s finest pianists and teachers\, to perform and learn new repertoire\, as part of a dedicated community of artists which encourages exchange over competition. \n\n\n\nThe concept of the pianist as musician lies at the heart of the Festival. The various roles of the pianist – as virtuoso\, chamber musician\, accompanist\, conductor\, academic and teacher – are all examined. As part of this holistic approach\, the various international schools of piano playing are considered. \n\n\n\nWith Alfred Brendel as the Festival’s Patron\, Sir András Schiff as President\, and the Festival’s founder Marios Papadopoulos a renowned pianist himself\, the bar is set very high in terms of quality and artistic integrity. \n\n\n\nPrevious participants at the Festival have gone on to achieve great success. Notable alumni include Alim Beisembayev (winner of the Leeds International Piano Competition 2021)\, Martin James Bartlett\, Mark Viner\, Alexander Ullman\, Mishka Rushdie-Momen and Denis Kozhukhin. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHighlights from past events\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook tickets via the festival website or call Oxford Philharmonic‘s Box Office on 01865 980980 (Monday to Friday from 9.00am to 5.00pm). \n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nPrices:See individual events for prices. \n\n\n\nRunning time:See individual events for running times. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra\n\n\n\nThe Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra is one of the UK’s leading orchestras\, recognised for its artistic excellence\, international reach\, and strong educational mission.
