Ian House is something of a dynamic fresh face on the organ and keyboard scene. At the age of only 22, he is firmly establishing himself as a consummate concert musician and is becoming a regular face on the UK concert circuit, as well as performing internationally several times in both America and Europe.
Having started his musical education at the age of 7, Ian rapidly progressed through his grades eventually attaining his Diploma from the London College of Music and Media. In 2003 Ian also won the title of 'Young Theatre Organist of the Year'.
At the age of 16, Ian entered into the music retail business as a sales assistant at Swift Music in Bristol. Soon after, he begun working alongside Roland UK and Roland Germany in the promotion of their latest Atelier organ range, touring with their top of the range AT900C instrument and programming many of the pre-built settings included in the latest models. More recently, Ian's musical career saw him move to Eastbourne where for two years he undertook the role of Senior Piano and Keyboard Specialist at Bonners Music Superstore - the largest independent music store in the country.
In early 2011, Ian was appointed as a freelance product specialist in Yamaha UK's Electronic Keyboard Devision - a role which will see him feature their latest digital pianos, Tyros workstations and PSR keyboards nationwide.
Now living in Bath, and alongside his work in the music industry, Ian works as a freelance web development consultant and was largely responsible for the rebirth of the OrganFax website.
Ian tours with an innovative setup based around a Yamaha Tyros 4 keyboard with an 88 note lower manual and pedalboard - an extremely portable yet powerfully expressive concert instrument.
Ian will also be featured at the following festivals this year.
