ABOUT THE KEYBOARD CHARITABLE TRUST

Registered Charity No.1017036

The Keyboard Trust identifies today’s most promising young keyboard talent and enables them to perform in many of the most important music centres in Europe and the Americas. By giving them access to an expanding international circuit of platforms, the Trust helps them to make the vital transition from final education to a fully professional life and to build up an international following. Among its Trustees are two of today’s most eminent classical artists, Claudio Abbado and Alfred Brendel, alongside other important figures in the music world.
Incorporated in London in 1993, its operations extended first to the USA, then to Germany, Italy and the Netherlands and, more recently, to Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Uruguay. On this circuit of currently over 50 platforms it has launched some 120 outstanding young pianists and organists, drawn from all over the world, many of whom are now making notable careers. It would be difficult for young artists to find such a breadth of international exposure from any other source.
