Born: 1992 - Tetney, Louth, Lincolnshire, England

The English pianist and tenor, Cameron Richardson-Eames, is a graduate of Trinity College, Cambridge University (2011-2014), and the Royal Academy of Music, London. He is currently a Fulbright Scholar at The Juilliard School in New York, studying collaborative piano under Dr Brian Zeger, Margo Garrett and JJ Penna, where he is supported by the Arthur Gold, Robert Fizdale, and George H Gangwere Scholarships. At Cambridge he was a choral scholar, and graduated with high First Class Honours, a Senior Academic Scholarship, Newton Scholarship, Research Scholarship, as well as the inaugural postgraduate scholarship for voice.

Cameron Richardson-Eames is one of the UK’s foremost young accompanists. Upon graduating, he was immediately appointed to the music faculty of Cambridge University, where he spent three years teaching Dissertation Studies and Keyboard Harmony. At the Royal Academy of Music, he was awarded the Major Von Someron Godfrey Award for accompanists, Dame Ruth Railton Prize for chamber music, Katie Thomas Memorial Award for outstanding achievement, and the coveted honarary Diploma of the Royal Academy of Music for outstanding postgraduate performance. Recent engagements include broadcasts on BBC Radio 3, Classic FM, Südwestrundfunk Deutschland and WQXR in the USA, including live at the launch night of the BBC Proms, and performances in the UK (including world premiers of recently discovered works by Benjamin Britten), Germany, France, Italy, Estonia, Malta, and in New York at Alice Tully Hall, and Marilyn Horne’s ‘The Song Continues’ series at Carnegie Hall. Forthcoming engagements include recitals in the UK (Wigmore Hall, St James’ Piccadilly, Ryedale Festival), Copenhagen, Paris, Cuba, a Carnegie Hall Neighborhood Concert with mezzo soprano Siena Licht Miller, and a London recital with the acclaimed British mezzo-soprano, Jennifer Johnston. He is also a member of the piano staff at the Ravinia Steans Music Institute.

Cameron Richardson-Eames trained as a joint-first study singer and has performed with the Grammy-nominated choirs Polyphony (Director: Stephen Layton; voted second-best choir in the world in Gramophone magazine) and The Trinity College Choir of Cambridge (Director: Stephen Layton), with whom he recorded thirteen CD's for the Hyperion record label. He appears as a tenor soloist on the recent Christmas album ‘Yulefest’ (Hyperion), about which the Los Angeles Times wrote ‘if you’re not touched by tenor Cameron Richardson-Eames, you have grinch in your soul’. He studied voice with Professor Susan McCulloch (Guildhall School of Music and Drama), and now works as a vocal coach for the Magaziner Vocal Studio in New York. He is in high demand as both a voice teacher and vocal coach, with current students appearing in many Broadway shows. His extremely varied career includes playing for the Brit Award-winning crossover band, BLAKE, whose recent album is currently at number one in the UK Classical Charts and who recently recorded an album with Dame Shirley Bassey. Cameron is a Park Lane Group Young Artist and a Fellow of Trinity College London in piano performance.
