Dr Louise Cournarie is an international concert pianist and sought-after piano teacher, combining an active performing career with extensive experience at some of the UK’s most prestigious musical and educational institutions.

She holds a PhD in Performance Research from the Royal Academy of Music, where she subsequently worked as a Baroque Piano Coach. She has also taught at King’s College London and currently teaches piano at Winchester College, St Paul’s School and St Paul’s Girls’ School.

Her teaching has an exceptional record of success, including a 100% distinction rate at Grade 8 and diploma level. Her students regularly progress to advanced diploma qualifications, including LTCL and FTCL. Internationally, she has delivered specialist pedagogy training to more than 2,500 piano teachers in China, alongside masterclasses and lectures at conservatoires and universities in the UK and abroad.

Alongside her teaching, Louise maintains an active international performing career, with appearances at Wigmore Hall, St Martin-in-the-Fields and Steinway Hall, as well as live broadcasts on French national radio and regular performances across Europe and China.

Louise teaches from her private studio in central Guildford, on a grand piano, welcoming pupils from beginner to diploma and advanced level. Her teaching combines a strong technical foundation with musical independence, stylistic understanding and expressive freedom, with each programme tailored to the individual pupil’s ambitions.
