Dr Graham Griffiths, DPhil (Oxon)

… divides his time between City University London where he is Honorary Research Fellow (Musicology) and The Arts Society for whom he is an accredited speaker offering lecture-recitals across the UK and mainland Europe on Mozart, Schubert, Stravinsky and Kashperova (as featured by the Arts and Humanities Research Council and on BBC Radio 3). 

… is the author of a critically-acclaimed study of Stravinsky, Stravinsky's Piano: Genesis of a Musical Language (Cambridge University Press, 2013), the paperback version is available from Cambridge University Press or Amazon. There is also a hardback version available here.

  • '… an eloquently written monograph that traces the influence of Stravinsky's pianism on his compositional process … Stravinsky's Piano is a resounding success that will be celebrated by the Stravinsky community for years to come.' Music and Letters
  • 'This is a well-written, engaging book that delves into technical discussion of compositional processes while remaining eminently readable ... Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, and professionals.' Choice (Journal of the American Public Libraries Association)

… regularly researches at the major Russian academies, libraries and archives; recently invited to lecture at the XV St. Petersburg International Conservatoires Festival hosted by ‘N.A. Rimsky-Korsakov’ State Conservatoire in October, 2015.

 … specializes in the presentation of concerts with commentary which aim to provide a helpful ‘way in’ to the Classical Music tradition. For the more experienced listener Griffiths offers much more besides, presenting unfamiliar angles on familiar musical topics in an informal style accessible to all ages and stages – from young children, parents, teachers and school-age music specialists (music scholars, GCE, AS, A-level students) to university students, music professionals and the wider musically-curious, music-loving community of concert-goers – all at once!
