Gerard Flotats And Julian Chan

About

The Saint Boniface Society presents this exciting concert, with works by Beethoven, Janek and Barber, in Crediton Parish Church. (Free parking, disabled access, refreshments, free entry for FT students under 30)
Following their exceptional performance in 2025 we are delighted to welcome back this duo with a new repertoire. Prize-winning Catalan cellist Gerard Flotats - winner of the Royal Over-Seas League Strings Competition, has been selected for the Tillett Debut, Philip & Dorothy Green Young Artists, and Munster Trust recital schemes. His recent engagements include concerts at the Wigmore Hall, Manchester Bridgewater Hall, Kings Place, and the Pierre Boulez Saal. He is passionate about showcasing lesser-known pieces and collaborates with composers to introduce contemporary music to new listeners. Gerard plays on an Amati cello from the 1680s.
Julian Chan has performed at numerous prestigious venues and recently was awarded First Prize and Sonata Prize at the Nanyang International Music Competition, Singapore, Second Prize at the Jazeps Vitols International Piano Competition, Latvia, the Royal Over-Seas League Collaborative Piano Award, First Prize at the Norah Sande Award, and First Prize at the Coulsdon and Purley Festival with his performance of Rachmaninoffs Third Piano Concerto.
