| Lewis Brito-Babapulle was born in 1983 and educated at Trinity School, Croydon, where he was an Academic Scholar. He began his formal study of the organ there at the age 16 under Richard Pilliner and progressed rapidly, winning the Organ Scholarship at St. Peter's College, Oxford after only a year and a half of lessons. He gained his ARCO at Oxford and has just graduated with First Class Honours in Music. He is currently Church Music Scholar at the Royal Hospital, Chelsea. | ||
| Lewis has given recitals in a number of major UK venues. He has twice been a student and won recital awards at the Oundle International Summer School, and gave a recital in the Gloucester Three Choirs Festival 2000 as a result of an award from the National Performance Festival for Young Organists. At St. Peter's, he performed in duet with Proffesor Ian Tracey at the inaugural recital of the restored 'Father Willis' organ in the College Chapel. | ||
| Whilst at Oxford, Lewis also held the post of Director of Music at the University Catholic Chaplaincy, where he was organist for the world premiere of John Caldwell's opera 'Pascga Nostrum'. He directed the Chaplaincy Choir on Italian Television whilst touring in Rome. As an accompanist, he has also toured with the St. Peter's Chapel Choir to Prague, Dublin and Gibraltar and broadcast with them on Radio Gibraltar. | ||
| Lewis currently studies the organ with Anne Marsden-Thomas, with whom he studied at the Junior organ Conservatoire of London before going up to Oxford. He was a pupil there of Clive Driskill-Smith but has also performed in Masterclasses with international recitalists including Nicholas Kynaston, Thomas Trotter, Harold Vogel and Marie-Bernadette Duforcet-Hakim. | ||
| Lewis has for some years played double bass in a jazz quartet, and is very interested in Music Technology and Production. | ||
