William Howard (piano) is one of Britain’s leading pianists, enjoying a career that has taken him to over 40 different countries. In 1983 he founded the Schubert Ensemble, with which he performed for the 35 years of the ensemble’s existence.

His solo career has taken him to many of Britain’s most important festivals, including Bath, Brighton and Cheltenham. He has performed many times at the Wigmore Hall and at the South Bank Centre in London and has broadcast regularly for BBC Radio 3. 

He also has a strong interest in Czech piano music and has been particularly acclaimed for his performance of Janáček, for which he received a medal from the Czech Minister of Culture in 1986.
