The Grier Duo at Jam on the Marsh

The Grier Duo, two thirds of the Grier Trio, makes its JAM on the Marsh debut after many previous visits to St. Leonard’s Hythe. Father and daughter duo Indira (cello) and Francis Grier (piano) have been playing concerts together for fifteen years, including London’s St John’s, Smith Square, the Fairfield Halls, Croydon, as well as in the Blackheath Halls concert series, and St Mary’s, Perivale. In 2016 they played at All Souls, Oxford, and in the Holywell Music Room for the Oxford Chamber Music Society.

Indira has blossoming solo careers away from the duo, whilst their father has enjoyed a long and distinguished musical life as both performer and composer. He was organist of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, and gave the first ever BBC Proms concert given over to a solo performer in 1985. In 2012 he was awarded a British Composer Award.
