Joss Wort (piano)

Joss was born and raised in Yatton and began playing the piano when he became a student at Backwell secondary school in North Somerset. Whilst studying for his A-levels he was taught by Helen Reid, who is a renowned teacher and performer in her own right, and in 2020 he was lucky enough to play and study segments of Liszt’s Mephisto Waltz with Stephen Hough in London.

Joss continued his piano studies at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in 2021 under the tutelage of Roger Owens where he performed solo, concerto and chamber concerts throughout Somerset, Gloucester, South Wales and London.
Last year during his studies, Joss returned to Yatton to play his first public performance of Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No 1 with the West Mendip Orchestra conducted by John Johnson. Upon graduating this year, Joss was awarded the John Roberts Memorial Award for his passion for the works of Beethoven during his studies.

For our October concert Joss will play music by Haydn, Beethoven and Schubert.
