Lucy The Pianist

£22.50
City Varieties Music Hall

At just 13 years old, BAFTA-nominated Lucy won the nation’s hearts after her awe-inspiring performance on Channel 4’s The Piano. Performing a breathtaking rendition of Chopin’s Nocturne in B-flat Minor at Leeds Train Station, Lucy stopped commuters in their tracks and left the world in awe.

Lucy is completely blind and has a chromosome 16 duplication, which is a rare condition affecting mental health with autism traits and affecting overall communication. Lucy is hypermobile and suffers with CVS. She is in remission from bilateral retina-blastoma and is globally developmentally delayed. Despite these challenges, Lucy’s extraordinary musical talent has become her voice. From the age of five, Lucy’s unique gift for playing back music after hearing it just once captivated her family.

Crowned the ‘unofficial winner’ of The Piano by world-renowned pianist Lang Lang and pop star Mika for her stunning rendition of Debussy’s Arabesque No. 1, Lucy has gone on to conquer some of the world’s most prestigious stages. From performing at HRH King’s Coronation Concert at Windsor Castle, broadcast to 18 million viewers, to gracing the iconic Royal Albert Hall during Classic FM Live, Lucy’s musical journey has been nothing short of magical.

With a special bond forged with Lang Lang, the two have performed together on multiple occasions, including the ITV Royal Variety Performance, and their impromptu duet of Faure’s Pavane Op.50 became an instant fan favourite. Named an International Ambassador for the Lang Lang International Music Foundation, Lucy’s rise has been nothing short of extraordinary.

This is Lucy — an inspiring talent whose music transcends boundaries and speaks directly to the heart. Don’t miss the chance to be part of this incredible journey as she performs a wide repertoire of music including Claude Debussy’s Arabesque No. 1, Frédéric Chopin’s Nocturne No. 4, J.S. Bach’s Prelude in C Major, Stevie Wonder’s I Wish and many more of Lucy’s favourites.
