Artist Bio
Olivia Tam began playing the piano at the age of three and received her early musical training in Hong Kong with Vivian Cheng Wai. She is currently a scholar at the International Piano Academy at Rossall School, where she studies with Victor Lim and receives regular guidance from Martin Roscoe and Kathryn Stott.
Olivia has taken part in masterclasses with distinguished pianists including Ian Fountain, Graham Scott, Jan Loeffler, Jeremy Young and Noriko Ogawa. She holds the LTCL diploma and has won prizes in national and international competitions, most recently receiving Second Prize and the Carola Grindea Audience Prize at the 2026 Beethoven Piano Society of Europe Junior Intercollegiate Competition.
Passionate about exploring a wide range of repertoire, Olivia enjoys performing both as a soloist and as a chamber musician, with Beethoven and Chopin among her favourite composers. Her performances have taken her to venues across the UK, including Steinway Hall London, Leeds Conservatoire, Royal Northern College of Music and Manchester Cathedral. She is delighted to make her London solo recital debut at St James’s Piccadilly.
