Tim
Carey, born and bred in England, continues to enjoy a career full of variety,
as solo performer, chamber-music player, orchestral keyboard player and teacher.
His early studies were with Harold Parker, Louis Kentner, and then, at the Royal
College of Music, London, with Kendall Taylor, David Parkhouse, and Bernard
Roberts. He was awarded many prizes and scholarships during his time there,
both in and outside college.
He now spends his time partnering many different instrumentalists, especially flautists, in a large variety of chamber-music combinations, as well as giving the occasional solo recital and concerto performance. Over the last few years he has established an international reputation as a flautist’s collaborator and has become the regular pianist for many international events, working with flautists from all over the world on both sides of the Atlantic.He is also a founder-member of the London Tango Quintet, specialising in the music of Piazzolla..
As orchestral keyboard player he has worked in the past with the London Symphony Orchestra, the Bournemouth Orchestras, the Philharmonia, the Ulster Orchestra and currently he is a regular pianist with the BBC Concert Orchestra, with whom he has enjoyed some great events. He remains much in demand as a teacher throughout Essex and having recently set up the Chelmsford Sinfonietta, is now trying his hand at orchestral management too!
Piano playing has taken Mr.Carey all over Britain and Europe, as well as Israel, Malta, Russia, Scandinavia, Australia, Japan and regularly to the U.S.A. When not actively involved in musical pursuits, Tim still finds time for his other interests which include languages, reading, anything to do with cars, aircraft and boats, as well as trying to spend time with his large family!
