| Our conductor Steven Kings was born in Worcester in 1962. He was educated at The King’s School Worcester, St John’s College Cambridge, and the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. His work as a musician encompasses conducting, composing, performing as a pianist, piano teaching, and speaking about music. He is currently accompanist and assistant chorus master to the Bristol Choral Society and the BBC National Chorus of Wales, both of whom he has conducted in concerts at home and abroad. Between 1999 and 2004 he was conductor of the Cotswold Chorus, with whom he performed a variety of choral works from the seventeenth to the twentieth centuries
He is very busy as a pianist in and around Bristol, where he lives. He is a regular performer as soloist and accompanist, and recently began a piano duo partnership with Christopher Northam. His compositions have been performed all over Britain and as far afield as Tokyo, and in 2003 he was nominated for a British Composer Award for his haiku mass, which had been performed by the Bristol Choral Society. His specially commissioned setting of the Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis was performed at the 2005 Three Choirs Festival. |
