Clifford Evans was born in the UK, started to learn piano at the age of 5 and studied at the Birmingham Conservatoire, Royal Academy of Music, London and at the St. Petersburg Conservatoire, Russia. He won many prizes and scholarships as a student including the Beethoven prize and the Principal's special prize at the Royal Academy during which time he played piano on BBC Welsh radio and TV.
Concerts - many well-received piano concerts in the UK, Channel Isles, France and in the Schloss Leopoldskron in Austria. His piano recitals at London's South Bank were highly praised by the music critic of the Guardian, Daily Telegraph and Sunday Times newspapers, also the magazine, 'Music and Musicians'. He particularly enjoys playing the piano music of Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Chopin, Liszt, Rachmaninoff, Prokofiev, Mussorgsky and Gershwin.
Diplomas and Awards - Licentiate of the Royal Academy of Music - piano teaching - 1969
Appointed Associate of the Royal Academy of Music -1984 - in recognition of his services to music.
Certificate in Education - The University of Birmingham - 1976
Teaching - Clifford has taught at many teaching establishments, colleges and schools - including the Royal Academy of Music - Colchester Institute School of Music - Royal Wolverhampton School - St Alban's Comprehensive School Ipswich, and others. As senior partner in Marycliff Teaching, for the last 20 years he has concentrated on piano tuition lessons for adult beginners and more advanced students equally. The immense experience and insight which he has acquired in solving the complex challenges of piano playing is reflected in the fact that many an advanced and professional pianist travels long distances to consult with him, in addition to many happy adults achieving their dream of learning to play piano. One adult beginner travelled from Durham to Ipswich for lesson with Clifford, and an ex-pupil traveled all the way from the USA to Ipswich for a refresher lesson. Professionals who are giving public concerts come to him to check their work over. With all this amazing demand on his time and skills, he really has become a piano teacher GURU.
Piano Course - The DVD course "Learn the piano with Clifford Evans" is the result of Clifford's interest and passion for giving adults musical opportunities such as the desire to read music and play piano or keyboard. Opportunities in fact, which they thought were lost to them. These are piano tuition lessons on DVD for acoustic or digital piano and keyboard produced by Marycliff Productions |
