The Society is delighted to welcome pianist Iyad Sughayer for our first concert since 2020. This concert will take place at St James the Great Church in Morpeth in order to allow the use of a larger piano for this special recital.
Iyad is pursuing a promising solo career and has also been selected by the prestitigous, and highly competitive, Young Classical Artists Trust programme. Born in Amman in Jordan, Iyad studied at Chetham's School of Music, the Royal Northern College of Music and Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance where he won the College’s prestigious Gold Medal.
'He captures the music’s essence with such a close sense of recreative identity that it feels on occasion as though he could be composing it as he goes along. An outstanding debut'

Please note that concert goers will be expected to follow current government guidelines and will be encouraged to wear a face covering if possible.
