Piano Teachers in Birmingham

Michael Winwood is a piano teacher in Birmingham. From his earliest years he showed a fascination with the piano and loved singing. His initial piano instruction was begun by his father, Charles. But the real musical influence in his life was his rather august grandmother, Ruby Winwood (née Rayner), who had been a serious and gifted contralto singer in her youth. She occasionally performed with her brother, Leonard Rayner, the renowned concert pianist and teacher.

The School continues to flourish at Michael’s home in Harborne Lane, Selly Oak, where he lives, a widower now, with three cats - Rupert, Boris and Bertie – and still regularly riding his beloved horse, Brodie, who lives a life of luxury in the Wyre Forest in Shropshire. Michael says Brodie “rides like the wind and jumps like a champion!”
