Acclaimed both for its high standards of artistry and professionalism, the
Melbourne-based Team of Pianists has captivated audiences in Australia and
overseas for nearly twenty years. Coupled with unquestioned commitment to
the highest artistic performance standards in its many solo and chamber
recitals, concerto performances, CDs, and broadcasts, the Team is equally
committed to promoting young musicians through its many masterclass
programmes in metropolitan and regional areas alike. The Team has produced
nine CDs covering wide range of music including a number of exciting, yet
rarely recorded works, as well as two innovative videos and various
publications on the art of piano playing and musicianship. The members of
the Team are Artists-In-Residence for the National Trust of Australia
(Victoria) at Glenfern, the National Trust's Centre for the Arts and
Culture. Here the Team has recently established the Glenfern Piano Institute
which has developed innovative programmes including the Spring Piano School
for Primary and Secondary school age students, Weekend Retreats for Adult
Piano Students, as well as masterclasses by Australian and overseas artists. Professor Max Cooke is Director, with Robert Chamberlain and Darryl Coote as the Partners.
Two previous members of the Team of Pianists, Sonny Chua and Linda Kouvaras have also released solo piano CDs with Move.
