David Wright, harpsichord
David Wright is a musician of international acclaim who specialises in early keyboard instruments.
Originally from London's East End, David was entirely self-taught as a child and until his late teens. He then went on to study at the Royal College of Music, where he was the winner of numerous international competitions and prizes, most notably the Broadwood Harpsichord Competition. He pursues an extremely busy career as soloist, chamber musician and continuo player in orchestras and opera companies, recently recording with The Academy of Ancient Music.
With an extensive discography to his credit, recent collaborations have included recordings with Tasmin Little, Julian Lloyd Webber, composer Debbie Wiseman (in the soundtrack to the BBC series Wolf Hall), the English Concert, Academy of Ancient Music and concerts with Dame Emma Kirkby and James Bowman. After recording the monumental Goldberg Variations in 2007 David spent much of his time touring as a soloist until he joined the blockbuster group Red Priest who now occupy most of his time with a busy international concert diary.
When not touring, David enjoys working on his crumbling Georgian house in Cambridgeshire which he shares with 9 harpsichords, 2 clavichords, 2 square pianos and 1 chamber organ.
