Julian Perkins



'...a leader in the new generation of keyboard virtuosi.'
- Cambridge Early Music


Director of Sounds Baroque, Julian Perkins leads a fulfilling career as a conductor, soloist, and chamber musician. His great breadth of experience is an enormous asset; recent projects have ranged from performances at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, to sell-out clavichord recitals at the St Albans International Organ Festival. Together with his early experiences as a professional consort singer with groups such as the Monteverdi Choir, Julian is ideally qualified for his numerous partnerships with renowned soloists and ensembles.
   
After reading music at King’s College, Cambridge, Julian studied primarily at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, the Royal Academy of Music, and with Trevor Pinnock CBE. Awards have included the prestigious Ian Fleming Award, Countess of Munster Trust Awards, Leverhulme Trust Award, Finzi Scholarship, and Wingate Scholarship. He also teaches at the Royal Academy of Music, leads courses, and writes articles for international publications.
