Biography
Alexia Daphne Eleftheriadou is an award winning Greek pianist in demand as a soloist, chamber musician, and teacher. Her affinity for the music of J.S Bach has earned her the Royal Academy of Music’s Harriet Cohen Bach Prize, as well as the RCS Bach Prize for Harpsichord, Piano and Organ. She was also the winner of the RCS concerto competition, culminating in a performance and recording of Beethoven’s 3rd Piano Concerto with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. In June 2025, Alexia will make her solo debut at London’s Wigmore Hall.
Performance highlights include solo appearances at major venues such as the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall, Queen’s Hall in Edinburgh, the Greek National Opera recital hall in Athens as part of the GNO Piano Festival as well as recitals at the Thessaloniki Piano Festival. Alexia has also received tuition from renowned artists including Leif Ove Andsnes, Dame Imogen Cooper, Yevgeny Sudbin, Pascal Roge, Grigory Gruzman, Steven Osborne, Piers Lane, and Roy Howat among others.
Her other competition successes include top prizes at the Ramsay Calder Debussy Prize for Keyboard, the Philip Halstead Prize for Piano, the Edinburgh Concerto Competition Festival, as well as the Roma International Piano Competition in the Duo 4 Hands category with pianist William Bracken.
Alexia recently completed a Master of Arts at the Royal Academy of Music in London under the tutelage of Ian Fountain, graduating with distinction and receiving the diploma for exceptional performance in her final recital. She is currently continuing her studies in the Professional Diploma course at RAM and also holds a Bachelor of Music from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland where she studied with Jonathan Plowright, Aaron Shorr and Fali Pavri.
A member of the Musicians’ Company Young Artists’ Programme and a Talent Unlimited artist, Alexia’s studies have been generously supported by RAM scholarships, the Munster Trust Derek Butler Award, Help Musicians, the Craxton Memorial Trust, and the Zetland Foundation.
