London-based Concert Pianist available for Recitals and Private Events
Juliet is a classically trained classical pianist with an extensive and varied repertoire available for hire for events. Playing styles from the 16th century up until modern-day pop, she has extensive knowledge and expertise in her instrument. She can play to either soothe an audience, make them dance, or even extract a tear at an opportune moment.
Juliet is an internationally acclaimed and award-winning composer and pianist who is known for writing scores for Soviet silent films commissioned by Klassiki and the NCCA. However, her debut came after writing for BAFTA-winning director Gerry Fox’s documentary “Force of Nature: Natalia”, which premiered at Curzon Cinemas in London in 2019.
Most recently, she was commissioned by The Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sports of the Republic of Armenia to write the score for “The House on the Volcano” by Amo Bek-Nazaryan for the centenary of Armenian cinema. For this project, she directed the Conservatory Orchestra of Armenia to make a live recording. Consequently, this work received an “outstanding” review by Peter Bradshaw from The Guardian and “an absolute triumph” by Fin Logie from Lossi 36 and has been premiered all over the world, most recently at MoMA.
