Callum McLachlan

Callum McLachlan, finalist of the 18th Schumann Competition Zwickau and semi-finalist at both the Leeds and Santander International Piano Competitions, has been described as “a born Schumann player” with “a magical sense of colour and extraordinary technical prowess.” His performances at the Leeds were broadcast live on BBC Radio 3 and Medici.tv, reaching audiences of thousands worldwide. The Leeds described him as “continuing to captivate audiences with his profound musicality and virtuosic performances."

Following this success, he was the only British pianist selected for the 17th Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. Gramophone magazine praised him for “the warmth and body of his gorgeous sonority,” describing his first-round performance as “luminescent, clear, virtuosic, and balanced.”

The 2025/26 season marks his debut appearances at the Konzerthaus Berlin, Vienna’s Musikverein, the Liederhalle Stuttgart, and Wigmore Hall.

He currently studies with Kirill Gerstein at the Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler Berlin
