James Rhodes - Live

James Rhodes has had an astonishing life. After a traumatic childhood, he found his salvation through classical music. With sheer determination he overcame his experiences and went on to become a writer, commentator, TV presenter and renowned concert pianist, performing sold-out concerts around the world.

Using his trademark ‘stand-up style’, insights and anecdotes on classical music, maverick pianist James Rhodes comes to Watford Colosseum with his highly unique show. This concert tour celebrates the release of his memoir, Instrumental, a tribute to the therapeutic powers of music, as well as a fascinating insight into the lives of some of the great composers.

Last year James performed at Latitude Festival, toured to Hong Kong and Vienna and presented and performed in the acclaimed television documentary Notes from the Inside which aired on Channel 4. James is currently releasing his 5th studio album called 5 and filming his new series for Channel 4 which is due to air this September in the UK.

"He reaches out to young, unconverted audiences by throwing them into classical music’s deep end — with performances of such natural ease and brilliance that no one can resist."
