<strong>An Unmissable Afternoon of Musical Entertainment</strong><br />

<h4>

<br />
The irrepressible Derek Paravicini will once more be joined by some of the talented young musicians that The Amber Trust supports from across the UK, as well as visually impaired children from Germany and Sweden, for an afternoon of music making.<br />
<br />
Highlights of the concert will include the effervescent young pianist Lucy Illingworth, rising star Ashleigh Turley, the beautiful flute playing of Anna Foo, a Mozart string quartet with Lilly Kurata, Poppy McGhee, Takashi Kikuchi and Ivan Deb, and a very special performance on the harp by deafblind Jessica Howard. You can look forward to the world premiere of Zoe Dixon's <em>From a Railway Carriage</em> sung by the St Paul's Juniors Recital Choir. And, as ever, Derek will be taking requests from the audience – so that part of the programme will be down to you!<br />
<br />
Tickets for the concert are £20 (concessions £10)<br />

Despite his impairment, Derek has the unique gift of perfect pitch, and is able to play any piece of music after hearing it only once. In 2010, Derek was featured on Stan Lee's "Superhumans", whereupon tests verified his musical ability and confirmed his savantism. He began playing the piano at two, and subsequently attended the Linden Lodge School for the Blind in London. He met a piano instructor, Adam Ockelford, on his first visit to the school; recognising his genius, Adam began to teach him. Derek gave his first concert in South London aged seven. Adam is a Professor of Music at the University of Roehampton, the Chair of Soundabout, a charity supporting music provision for young people and founder of the AMBER Trust, supporting visually impaired children in their pursuit of music.<br/><br/>www.tedxwarwick.com<br/><br/>In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations) </div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </td> <td width="40"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="22" colspan="3"></td> </tr> </table> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="16"></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td width="40"></td> <td width="498"> <div style=" font-family:arial,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:11px; color:#999999; line-height:14px; "> <a href="http://support.google.com/youtube/" style="text-decoration:none; color:#1C62B9;">Help centre</a> • <a href="http://www.youtube.com/account_notifications?feature=em-share_video_user" style="text-decoration:none; color:#1C62B9;">Email options</a> • <a href="http://www.youtube.com/email_spam?v=1a&c=mS3pkxFv9F6xT-YJ9L-2gY5BJ8M079lH3kIha1hyEvoHQrJi7Lqn4gACIjdmn1XYK7RXOI2ES1Y0VkW0OCcezgXdL3CiBPlRvvfq1lhSoq7TDmb8mGfYq7v57hOyII5FX3qbWgmPuOu87dMscHV2Xh2ju8y4ine5Qq6SpgOVnAo9999yyWcit_aNxJT5Vi-mYXrauO_tGou2CD7-FETlDg==" style="text-decoration:none; color:#1C62B9;">Report spam</a> </div> </td> <td width="40"></td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="16"></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td width="40"></td> <td width="498"> <div style=" font-family:arial,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:11px; color:#999999; line-height:13px; "> ©2013 YouTube, LLC 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066 </div> </td> <td width="40"></td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="22"></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr></table> Derek Paravicini's Official Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13710655979873583438noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6415577389372842392.post-8396576724899361612013-03-04T06:00:00.001-08:002013-03-04T06:00:46.597-08:00Adam Ockelford on BBC Radio 3<div dir='ltr'> Adam Ockelford has recently been on BBC Radio 3, talking about Music and the Mind (including a bit about Derek on episode 4) - you can listen again here...<BR> <BR><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01qwh0y">http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01qwh0y</a><BR> <BR><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01qqfm8">http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01qqfm8</a><BR> </div>Derek Paravicini's Official Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13710655979873583438noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6415577389372842392.post-14762363814820235552013-02-14T02:49:00.001-08:002013-02-14T02:49:37.081-08:00BBC Radio 3 - Music and Autism<div dir='ltr'> Here is a link to a BBC Radio 3 Programme, which includes an interview with Adam Ockelford about music and autism (about 25 minutes in)<BR> <BR><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01qkswh/Music_Matters_Simone_Young_Toscanini_Autism_and_Music/">http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01qkswh/Music_Matters_Simone_Young_Toscanini_Autism_and_Music/</a><br> <BR><div> </div> </div>Derek Paravicini's Official Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13710655979873583438noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6415577389372842392.post-17401689608838120542012-12-18T01:19:00.001-08:002012-12-18T01:19:52.087-08:00Happy Christmas from Derek!<div dir='ltr'> Derek would like to wish everybody a very happy Christmas! <BR> <BR> Click on the link below for a video of Derek playing 'Sleigh Ride'...<BR> <BR> <A href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJVXAEOl_B0">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJVXAEOl_B0</A><BR> </div>Derek Paravicini's Official Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13710655979873583438noreply@blogger.com0
