William Haviland is a pianist/composer and probably best described as a fusion of pop and classical music. Originally from the UK, he currently lives in South Korea.
He studied Classical Music in London but since then has strayed a little from the confines of the score. His musical heroes include Chopin, Ravel, Elton John, Paul Simon, John Williams, and Keith Jarrett. He is especially fond of the body of work found in the ‘Great American Songbook’.
His early tuition was at the Blackheath Conservatoire, and subsequently, he accepted an offer to read Music at King’s College London. Since graduation, he has worked as a teacher, performer, and recording artist.
He is also an avid YouTuber, mostly of pop covers and classical reworkings for solo piano.
