| | If there is any such thing as a conventional background for concert performers, then Raymond Banning has certainly not enjoyed one. Deprived of most of the privileges that help youngsters forge musical careers, he worked his way from a tough council estate to the main performance platforms of this country.
His determination and natural talent led to his first piano concerto performances in his teens, followed by study at the Royal College of Music. Lean years followed, however, when he had little opportunity to develop his playing skills, lacking even a decent piano of his own. But his determined resolve and, many would say, sheer bloody-mindedness, found him beginning to build a career in the 1980s as a recitalist on a national level.
The end of that decade, however, found him dissatisfied with his playing and he decided to thoroughly overhaul his approach to the keyboard. He had become increasingly inspired by the great late Romantic pianists such as Rachmaninoff, Horowitz, Cortot and Myra Hess. He was aware that his own playing style lacked the values that those figures embodied. As he put it, "I decided to question everything I had ever been taught, and to have two rules only: to play in a more naturally relaxed manner, and to try and embody the qualities of those great pianists of a past age. Over the next few years my playing became totally transformed, gaining greater expressive depth and tonal range."
Following his dramatic conversion his concerts have attracted large audiences throughout the UK. An unashamed Romantic, he believes that many of the qualities that singled out the great performers of the past are being lost, with much contemporary playing emphasising the percussive nature of the piano. He devotes his attention to qualities of tone, colour and legato playing; qualities which mark his recitals as events of expressive and emotional power.

| | Greetings fellow Musicians I'm Denny Barch. I live in Ottawa Ontario CANADA; not all my life mind you - I was born in a very small country town in the Niagara Escarpment called Grimsby. I had a rather tragic beginning; losing my mother at 2.5 years of age; from a family of 7 altogether. By the time my mother was 33 she was to pass away by cancer. This was back in 1969. Dec 25th, Christmas Eve actually. To this day I have a certain fondness for several Carols of that season. Silent Night in particular, as well as a few other traditional hymns of similar style.
As a young man, having endured the trials and tribulations of foster homes; in and out of them, i reached the age of 6. By this time I felt I had grown up and was finally an adult. Needless to say, a lot of emotion had built up into my little, fragile self. My spirit was filled with emotion, with sad questions. To this day I truly believe that it was this disposition at such an early age, an early time in my life that I was destined to require an outlet. And what an outlet i found!
At the age of 9, I found/discovered a piano at my grandmother's house. At this point I was adopted into a family and had made attempts at settling down. Once I found this piano I became fascinated by it. I tapped tapped tapped on this piano until my fingers grew raw; but eventually I tapped out my first coherent work of music. It is entitled Little ballerina; it can be found on my YouTube page for those who care to listen.
I now find myself working on several different works at any given time. I love choral work, I love instrumental work. Currently I am procuring an operetta full of melodic arias and recitative passages. It's an epic tale debunking the idea of original sin. It has angels and demons and hard working philosophical men and women who in the end, figure out the solution to good and evil in the world. At this point I look forward to hearing from other like minded composers and musicians alike. Onward we go!
