Welcome to the website for the English pianist Kelvin Grout. Renowned for his worldwide career as a vocal accompanist, Kelvin Grout is now, in addition to his performing, giving classes and lectures to young musicians on the simplicity of making music.

"In the world of art-song, we are constantly seeking new and modern methods, techniques, a variety of theatrical formats, anything to make it more interesting for the public. It is my belief that we should concentrate on what is actually written on the page by the great composers and realise that this music is strong enough to stand alone without our interference. It is actually so much simpler than we think!"

Kelvin Grout is the artistic director for the new Lieder Academy currently under development in the Netherlands, due to start operating at the beginning of 2012. You can find Kelvin Grout on Facebook through the link below. Alternatively you can contact his manager or email him direct.
