Jeremy Filsell, an international artist hailed as one of only a few virtuoso performers as both pianist and organist, will present a piano recital in the First Presbyterian Church Sanctuary, on Sunday, March 22, at 2:00 PM. The event is free and open to the public. Jeremy has appeared as a solo pianist in Russia, Scandinavia, New Zealand and Australia and throughout the USA and UK. His concerto repertoire encompasses Bach, Mozart and Beethoven through to Shostakovich, John Ireland, Constant Lambert and the Rachmaninov cycle. He has recorded the solo piano music of Herbert Howells, Bernard Stevens, Eugène Goossens and Johann Christoph Eschmann and recent releases include discs of Rachmaninov’s solo piano music (Signum), the first and second Rachmaninov Concertos (Raven), the piano music of Francis Pott (Acis), and the Clavier-Übung III of J. S Bach, recorded on all five pipe organs in Saint Thomas Church, New York.
Before moving permanently to the US in 2008, Jeremy held Academic and Performance lectureships at the Royal Academy of Music in London and the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, and lived in Windsor Castle for nine years as an alto lay clerk in the Queen’s choir at St. George’s Chapel, Windsor. Since residing in the US, he has combined an international recital and teaching career with being Director of Music at the Church of the Epiphany in Washington DC, Artist-in-Residence at Washington National Cathedral, and Professor of Organ at Peabody Conservatory (Baltimore). In April 2019, he moved to New York to become Organist & Director of Music at Saint Thomas Church, Fifth Avenue – the last remaining church with a dedicated boarding choir school for boys singing choral liturgies five days a week. At Saint Thomas he broadened the artistic profile of the church’s concert series, expanded the choir’s repertoire to include more American and 21st-century music, and recorded commercially the choral music of William Byrd, Gerre Hancock, Calvin Hampton, and most recently, of Kenneth Leighton (Signum). Recently, having been associated musically with Sarasota for over twenty-five years, Jeremy was appointed Director of Music at Christ Episcopal Church in Bradenton in 2025.
Jeremy Filsell's recital is part of the 2025/26 FPC Music Series. Please join us for this delightful musical event showcasing an exceptional, worldclass musician! All are welcome!
