| 147 | + <p>Born and raised in Calgary, Canada, Liam Pond made his orchestral debut at age twelve on the harpsichord playing Bach’s F minor Concerto with the Kensington Sinfonia. Four years later, he performed the first movement of Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 with the Calgary Civic Symphony, later winning first place in his age category at the Canadian Music Competition’s national finals. In 2023, Liam earned his bachelor’s degree from the University of Toronto, studying classical piano performance with Dr. Jamie Parker. In his graduation recital, he performed Ravel’s Gaspard de la nuit—often considered the most difficult work in the standard piano repertoire—and jazz improvisation based on classical themes, a skill he developed over the pandemic by watching YouTube videos. Liam is currently pursuing a master’s in music technology at McGill University and the Université de Montréal, where he has been teaching ChatGPT music theory. Outside his studies, he enjoys rock climbing, chess, fencing, and language learning.</p> |
