SAM HAYWOOD
‘With a lyrical sensitivity honed by his chamber-music performances, pianist Sam Haywood creates melodies scaled to perfection against a patina of swirling accompaniment…’ Washington Post
‘Haywood does this repertoire (Stanford Preludes) absolutely proud; possessing a pleasingly rounded tone, sensitivity to dynamic nuance and flawless technical address, his is a decidedly superior brand of pianism.’ Gramophone
