Acclaimed as a “pianist of extraordinary gifts” (Gramophone) and “immense power” (The Times), Clare Hammond is recognised for her imaginative playing, visionary programming, and communicative performance style. She won the Royal Philharmonic Society’s Young Artist Award in 2016 and an Edison Klassiek Award in 2024.
Last year saw her debuts at the BBC Proms, Konzerthaus Berlin, and Salle Bourgie in Montreal, and return visits to the Wigmore Hall, London’s National Gallery, and Raritäten der Klaviermusik in Husum. Clare recorded a disc of concertos by Britten, Tippett and Walton with the BBC Symphony Orchestra and George Vass, performed Rachmaninov with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and Tom Fetherstonhaugh, and Hesketh with the Ulster Orchestra and Anna Rakitina. She gave the second ever performance of the recently revived Fantasia by Andrzej Panufnik, more than sixty years after its premiere, with the Filharmonia Poznańska and Łukasz Borowicz. In 2025, Clare makes her debut at the Royal Albert Hall, performing Rachmaninov’s Second Piano Concerto with the Philharmonia and Christopher Warren-Green, and premieres new concertos by Ninfea Cruttwell-Reade and George Stevenson with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales and Britten Sinfonia.
Clare completed a BA at Cambridge University where she obtained a double first in music, and undertook postgraduate study with Ronan O’Hora at the GSMD.
