The brilliant piano music of the great Frédéric Chopin has never been out of fashion since it first burst onto the international scene in the early 19th century.  This music wasn’t intended for the great concert halls of today, but for the intimate setting of Parisian and London Salons of the aristocracy.  This was the setting where Chopin felt most at ease and improvised many of his works for the first time.

Concert pianist, Warren Mailley-Smith recently became the first British pianist to perform the complete works of Chopin in one series of concerts, from memory.  Warren completes his Chopin marathon at the exclusive 1901 Arts Club this season with the bravura-laden Etudes Op.25 and a selection of other beautiful works.   

Warren Mailley-Smith

​Warren Mailley-Smith became the first British pianist to perform Chopin’s complete works for solo piano from memory in a series of 11 recitals at St John’s Smith Square in 2016.  Hailed by the critics as an “epic achievement”, Mailley-Smith will repeat the series at several venues in 2021.  

He has given acclaimed solo recitals at The Wigmore Hall, Carnegie Hall and has performed for the British Royal Family on numerous occasions.  One of the busiest concert pianists of his generation, he will give over 100 solo performances in 2021.

His career has taken him all over the world, with solo performances in Australia, Europe and most recently solo tours in China and the USA.  He is a popular soloist on the London concert scene and performs regularly in music societies, festivals, schools and concert halls throughout the UK and abroad and as guest artist on several of the world’s most famous cruise liners.

He has 30 piano concertos in his repertoire, having made his concerto debut with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.  

Warren’s growing discography has made an impact on critics, broadcasters and the public alike.  His recordings have been featured by Classic FM as CD of the Week and are heard regularly on Classic FM and the BBC.  He is currently recording the complete works of Chopin over a 3-year period for a 12-disc set for Sleeveless Records.

He is also an active chamber musician and is the Artistic Director of the Piccadilly Chamber Music Series and The Piccadilly Sinfonia .

Warren studied with some of the world’s leading pedagogues, including Peter Feuchtwanger, Ronald Smith and John Barstow at the Royal College of Music.  He is now in increasing demand himself as teacher in both masterclasses and private lessons.  He teaches at Royal College of Music Junior Departments and tutors on a number of residential courses, including Pro Corda, Piano Week and Pianissimi, in addition to giving masterclasses and adjudications throughout the UK and further afield.  

He has been at the forefront of developing online streaming as a means for musicians to continue performing in the face of the Coronavirus pandemic and is Artistic Director of www.CityMusicLive.co.uk.
