Renowned as a violinist with “dazzling interpretative flair and exemplary technique” (Classic FM), Jennifer Pike has taken the musical world by storm with her unique artistry and compelling insight into music from the Baroque to the present day.

Her prodigious talent first gained international attention in 2002, when, aged 12, she became the youngest-ever winner of the BBC Young Musician of the Year. Then, aged just 15, she made acclaimed debuts at the BBC Proms and Wigmore Hall, and soon after she became a BBC New Generation Artist, winner of the first International London Music Masters Award and the only classical artist ever to win the South Bank Show/Times Breakthrough Award. 

In demand as a soloist with major orchestras worldwide and appearing frequently on radio and television, recent highlights include concertos with the all the BBC symphony orchestras, the Philharmonia, Hallé, Bournemouth Symphony, Rheinische Philharmonie, Singapore Symphony, Malmö Symphony, Adelaide Symphony and Nagoya Philharmonic orchestras. 

Jennifer will be joined at Jersey Arts Centre by pianist Martin Roscoe. During his illustrious career, he has become one of the UK’s most loved and respected pianists. With his extensive repertoire, consummate musicianship and immediate connection with audiences, he is in great demand as a concerto soloist, chamber musician and recitalist.

As part of the acclaimed Amici Artium classical concert series, Jennifer Pike and Martin Roscoe will be playing a selection of pieces by Clara Schumann, Vaughn Williams and Elgar. Don't miss two classical music masters this October at Jersey Arts Centre!
