Following his debut in the Southbank Centre at age 23, British pianist Alexander Soares has garnered a reputation as a pianist of “huge intensity” (The Telegraph), developing a reputation as an artist of formidable technique and virtuosity, with performances of “diamond clarity and authority” (BBC Radio 3 ‘In Tune'). Since winning the Gold Medal in the prestigious Royal Overseas League Competition in 2015 – and his subsequent selection as a solo artist by City Music Foundation – he has performed in major venues and festivals across the U.K., Europe and United States, and broadcast on BBC Radio 3 on numerous occasions.

Equally comfortable performing a wide range of repertoire, Alexander is quickly gaining a reputation as a leading exponent of contemporary French repertoire. In 2019 he signed with Rubicon Classics to release his debut album Notations & Sketches featuring the solo piano works of Boulez, Dutilleux & Messiaen. The album was recorded in Milton Court and produced by Andrew Keener. Current and recent highlights include performances at The Wigmore Hall, The Wallace Collection, and a residency at the Two Moors Festival. He has launched The Notations Project with support from YCAT, an educational outreach programme to inspire young student composers. He will also be collaborating with emerging composer Gon ç alo Gato on the LSO Soundhub scheme.
