Rising Welsh musician Tomos Boyles is rapidly carving out a career as a young and exciting concert pianist. Described as possessing a ‘romantic flair and passion that only comes from intense involvement’ (Carol Nixon, LMC), he has performed at numerous prestigious venues including St Martin in the Fields in Trafalgar Square, the Holywell Music Room in Oxford, St David’s Hall in Cardiff, and the Wales Millennium Centre. Upcoming performances include solo recitals at the Ludlow Piano Festival and the Beaumaris Festival. 

He has enjoyed success in competitions, having recently been awarded first prizes at both the Urdd Eisteddfod and the Wales International Piano Festival solo categories. Other top prizes include the prestigious Blue Ribband at the National Eisteddfod, and first place in the EPTA competition. His interviews have been published by the Cross-Eyed Pianist’s Meet the Artist series and broadcasted by S4C and BBC Wales.

Tomos graduated from Christ Church, Oxford University in 2022 with a first-class degree in music with the highest marks in both solo and chamber performance. Now a postgraduate student at the Royal Academy of Music in London, Tomos works under Professor Rustem Hayroudinoff, having previously studied with Alison Bowring. He has also benefitted from masterclasses with such pianists as Joanna MacGregor, Piers Lane, Tom Poster, and Artur Pizarro. He is generously supported by the Countess of Munster Musical Trust and the John Fussell Memorial Trust Fund.
