Nina has become well know in Topsham having now given many recitals in St Margaret’s Church, the first of these was several years ago in September 2017. And since then, her professional approach and clarity of playing have drawn more and more people to listen. Nina’s last recital was back in May 2021, and she will be giving another recital on 16th January at 3.00pm.
Having moved on from Wells school Nina is now studying piano at The Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester where she is in her third year of a four-year course. This current academic year has seen it possible for students to have face to face piano tuition and Nina’s tutor is Helen Krizos.
It has also been possible to give live recitals and as well as playing in Topsham Nina has given recitals in Brighton and Edinburgh Cathedral. Currently her repertoire includes the Beethoven Pastoral Sonata, and a Mozart Piano Concerto. These two pieces will be part of the recital Nina will give on January 16th in St Margaret’s Church.
Joining Nina to take on the piano reduction for the Mozart Concerto will be friend and supporter Dorothy Raven playing the second small grand piano currently being looked after in St Margaret’s Church.
Nina’s playing is developing in leaps and bounds and although she loves playing more romantic composition her repertoire is embracing other composers such as J S Bach.

January is often a dark month and coming after the joy of Christmas might be cold and wet. A good opportunity to come together in the surrounds of St Margaret’s socially distanced and sanitised to enjoy this young pianist’s playing.
Entry to this concert will be free, and we hope you will make a donation as you leave which will be divided equally between Nina and Church Funds.

We will be adhering to Government and Church Covid guidelines in place at the time. Please do not come if you have symptoms and you might want to take a lateral flow test the day before.
