The Piccadilly Sinfonietta is one of the UK’s most exciting young ensembles and performs a selection of well-loved classics including the seasonal Christmas Concerto by Corelli and Mozart’s exquisite Eine Kleine Nachtmusik.  To celebrate its 10th consecutive year, the Piccadilly Christmas Concert 2018 features the virtuoso concert pianist Warren Mailley-Smith in performance with the Piccadilly Sinfonietta, with Mozart’s sublime Piano Concerto No. 21 in C major. The award-winning concert pianist and a favourite performer for the British Royal Family recently became the first British pianist to perform Chopin’s complete works from memory. An exceptional talent and a self-deprecating sense of humour, combined with his formidable technical skill and mature musicality, makes him a favourite with audiences and venue staff alike.
