1. Creative outputs as a musician

a. Public performances
A list of principal concerts can also be supplied.

I am a professional concert pianist; I have also performed professionally as an organist, harpsichordist and harmonium player. I was formerly also a choral and ensemble singer with both large and small groups to semi-professional level.

My first major professional appearance as a pianist was aged seventeen at the Purcell Room, London South Bank Centre. Other performance venues include all of London’s major concert halls, cathedral and church venues in the Midlands, East Anglia and the South, and concerts in Italy, France, Germany, Austria, Portugal.

I have given many modern-era premières of rediscovered works of the nineteenth-century including works by Beethoven, S.S. Wesley, Alkan, Kirchner, Beliczay and numerous others, often prepared from manuscript sources or early editions, and with spoken historical introductions. Several premières of contemporary music include works by Jonathan Dove and by contemporary Asian composers. As soloist, I performed much of the major repertoire of the Romantic era in concert and performed the transcriptions of Godowsky and Schulz-Evler while still a teenager. As ensemble artist and choral répétiteur I performed the major duo and oratorio repertoire of the Classical and Romantic eras. I have appeared in ensemble concerts performing my own compositions.

Between 1988 and 2000, I held permanent positions as organist at London churches; I also undertook freelance work as an organist, including some recital work concerned with the eighteenth-century English tradition.

b. Recordings released online
on my YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/c/JohnKerseypianist

Those items indicated * are believed to be the world première recordings of these works performed by a human pianist, excluding previous MIDI or other electronically-realized recordings. Certain of the Walter Niemann works were also recorded by the composer and Georg Liebling on piano rolls (which have never been transferred to disc), but have not otherwise been recorded; these are marked +. In some cases the recordings below may also constitute the first complete recording of a work where one or more movements have previously been recorded by others.
