British pianist Amiri Harewood has performed at many of the UK’s most prestigious venues, including the Royal Albert Hall (as part of the Steinway Young Artist series), St Martin-in-the-Fields, Wigmore Hall and the Royal Festival Hall. In May 2024 he was selected as a Grand Prizewinner of both the Young Classical Artist Trust and the Concert Artists Guild International Auditions. Following these honours, Amiri was named a Classic FM Rising Star for 2025 and has given recitals across the UK, including appearances at St George’s Hanover Square, the Brunton Theatre near Edinburgh and the Harrogate International Festival Sunday Series.

The 2025/26 season saw Amiri build on this momentum with successful debuts at the Concertgebouw Amsterdam and the Konzerthaus Berlin. He returned to Wigmore Hall for a second recital in February and will make his North American debut on a tour that includes recitals in Chicago and New York in April. His Royal Festival Hall concerto debut with Chineke! Orchestra attracted wide critical praise, described as a “Royal Festival Hall debut of considerable panache” (Geoff Brown, The Times) and noted for bringing “confidence and a touch of grandiloquence to Grieg’s Piano Concerto” (Richard Fairman, The Financial Times).

A postgraduate student at the Royal College of Music studying with Danny Driver, Amiri’s international engagements also include recitals at the Conservatorio in Venice, the Schleswig‑Holstein Music Festival, Kissinger KlavierOlymp, Grachtenfestival Amsterdam and the Mozart Music Festival in Forlì. He was selected to participate in the 2025 Lieven Piano Festival, where he attended masterclasses with Arie Vardi, Andreas Staier and Eldar Nebolsin.

Committed to outreach and education, Amiri uses his varied experiences to inspire younger musicians. He has undertaken youth outreach work with Music Masters and served as one of the first Tabor Piano Ambassadors of the Leeds International Piano Competition, representing the Royal College of Music.
