Scots pianist Sean Logan has reached the grand finale of a Channel 4 talent show.The Edinburgh-born autistic musician previously appeared in a BAFTA-winning short film, Harmonic Spectrum.
The Piano, hosted by Claudia Winkleman, is a Channel 4 competition show in a bid to find the top four UK amateur pianists to perform at the Royal Festival Hall in London.Pop icon Mika and world-renowned pianist Lang Lang will judge Sean and his fellow finalists to see who will get through to the final performance.
Sean also performed his own Edinburgh Fringe show last year focused on his experiences as an autistic musician and will be appearing at the festival again this year.Speaking of the show, Sean said: “It’s been a fantastic experience being on the show, I’ve really enjoyed it and it was great to get to perform as a finalist alongside such talented musicians at the Royal Festival Hall."Music brings people together in a positive way and, for me, as an autistic person, it is a great way to connect with others.
