James Rhodes
Musical artist

James Rhodes (born 6 March 1975 in London) is a British classical pianist.

Career

While attending a concert by the great Russian pianist Grigory Sokolov; Rhodes' childhood idol, he introduced himself to the piano Masterclass maestro Bryce Morrison. Following an intensive period of studying with Morrison and Colin Stone in London and Edoardo Strabbioli in Verona, Italy, the door was finally opened to allow him to become a professional pianist without any previous formal academic musical education or dedicated mentoring.

The recording of his debut album, performed at the magical Potton Hall, tucked away in a seductive Brittenesque patch of Suffolk, is somewhat of a biographical expression of Rhodes's complex and unorthodox journey.

Rhodes' first public recital was at Steinway Hall in London, on 7 November 2008. His second recital was at the Hinde Street Methodist Centre, London, on 4 December 2008. He performed his first full scale concert at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank Centre, in London on 6 February 2009.

Rhodes released his first album, Razor Blades, Little Pills and Big Pianos, on 2 February 2009 with Signum Records.
