Rob Young, Piano

“I’m Rob, originally from Mansfield, Nottinghamshire. I had the privilege of growing up with an international tenor for a father and an actress for a mother. My musical journey kicked off back in 1990 when I became a chorister at Southwell Minster. In 1996, I continued my studies at Wells Cathedral School, where I focused on piano and clarinet, and then at the Royal College of Music in 2000.

Throughout my career, I’ve worn multiple hats as a teacher, accompanist, music therapist, organist and support worker. In 2005, I relocated to South Wales, where I continued to pursue my musical path. In 2017, I decided to further my education at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, earning a postgraduate diploma in voice.

One of the most significant decisions in my musical journey occurred in 2018 when I joined Lost Chord. I consider this a pivotal choice in my life, deeply personal because my father battled dementia. It’s a great honour for me to be able to contribute to this cause.”
