Harrogate Music Festival Young Musician and winner of the Dorothy Parkinson Memorial Award for Young British Artists 2024, Amiri returns to Harrogate by popular demand. Currently studying at the Royal College of Music on a full scholarship under the tutelage of Danny Driver, Amiri holds the Ann Driver Trust Scholarship, supported by the Victor Dandaleh Foundation. He previously studied at Trinity Music Academy under Richard Evans and, in 2024, was a winner at the Young Classical Artists Trust Grand Prize.

Previous engagements include solo recitals at prestigious venues including Steinway Hall, St Martin-in-the-Fields, Institut Francais, Bishopsgate’s Institute, the Royal Albert Hall (as part of the Steinway Young Artist series), and an appearance performing on BBC Radio London.
