Born in Brighton, Tim took piano lessons at the age of six and just three years later headed north to Manchester and Chetham's School of Music where his teachers included Charles Hopkins and Ryszard Bakst.
Tim has performed with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic, Bournemouth Symphony and Trondheim Symphony orchestras and the Birmingham Contemporary Music Group. Performances of Britten's The Turn of the Screw with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra led to a recording of the work for Virgin Classics.
Chamber music is a central part of Tim's musical life. He has performed widely as duo partner of cellist Adrian Brendel, is a regular at the Plush Festival in Dorset and has given concerts with violinist Lucy Jeal and with members of the RLPO.
"As always, the pianist at the concerts under review, the wholly excellent Tim Horton, played everything with commitment which says this music is a masterpiece!"
