“No praise could be high enough for Piers Lane…superb musical intelligence, sensitivity, and scintillating brilliance.” GRAMOPHONE UK.

He has written and presented over 100 programmes for BBC Radio 3, including the 54-part series “The Piano”, and at the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Birthday Honours he was made an Officer of the Order of Australia (AO) for distinguished services to the arts.
