Based in London, British-Chinese pianist Noah Zhou began his musical journey at the age of 5. Generously supported through his childhood by the Eileen Rowe Musical Trust, he has since graduated with 1st Class Honours from the Royal Academy of Music, where he was awarded the Sir Elton John Scholarship, and where he studied with the Emeritus Head of Keyboard, Christopher Elton. During his time as a student, Zhou was awarded multiple top scholarships and grants from The Hattori Foundation, Countess of Munster Trust and the Drake Calleja Trust. Zhou has been a top prizewinner in over 15 national and international piano competitions, and first came to media attention when he was awarded the Royal Philharmonic Society of Great Britain's Duet Prize for Best Young Instrumentalist in 2018. Since then he has frequently performed in concerts all across the world, and recently made his debut recital at London's Wigmore Hall in January 2025, as well as a first appearance on BBC Radio 3, where his playing was described as masterful, but also deeply emotional and dramatic. Just prior, towards the end of 2024, Zhou was invited to give the first international premiere of a new work by the celebrated South American composer Angel Amparo, in Ibague, the musical capital of Colombia. In past seasons, Zhou has collaborated with numerous orchestras, including the Phion Orchestra of the Netherlands; the National Philharmonic Orchestra of Ukraine; the Brazilian National Symphony Orchestra; the Orquestra do Algarve; the Danube Symphony Orchestra; the Manchester Camerata; the Pazardzhik Symphony Orchestra; and the Malaga Symphony Orchestra, and has performed under the batons of conductors such as Antony Hermus; Douglas Bostock; Vitaliy Protasov; Roberto Tibiriçá; András Deák; Ronald Corp; Grigor Palikarov; Stephen Threlfall; and Victor Eloy Lopez Cerezo.
