Biography



Scott Storey is a British violist currently studying at the Royal College of Music in London with Eivind Ringstad and Simon Rowland-Jones. Scott has been awarded full scholarships from both Petronella Dittmer for undergraduate studies, and is the current ABRSM Postgraduate Scholar for a Masters degree. In 2026, Scott was selected as one of five violists from across Europe to take part in the inaugural Festival dei Due Mondi Academy in Spoleto, with highlights including a performance of Brahms’ First String Sextet alongside Kim Kashkashian, Mahler's Piano Quartet with Andrea Obiso, and a solo performance of Lowell Liebermann's Viola Sonata.

As a recipient of a Derek Butler Award from the Countess of Munster Musical Trust, Scott has also been offered a place on their prestigious young artists' recital programme. Previous recital appearances include the Concerts at Cratfield series, the Eaton Concert Series, the North Norfolk Music Festival alongside double bassist Levi Andreassen, and the London premiere of Ed Bennett's Twister. Scott has also taken part in masterclasses with Timothy Ridout, Kim Kashkashian, Thomas Riebl and Maxim Rysanov.

As a chamber musician, Scott has performed in some of the UK's most celebrated venues and abroad, including the Wigmore Hall, Windsor Castle for HM King Charles III, and at the foot of the Acropolis in Athens. Scott is also the latest appointment to the Vaughan Williams Ensemble, a London-based piano quintet with the unusual combination of violin, viola, cello and double bass.

Concerto appearances have included Berlioz's Harold in Italy with the Bromley Symphony Orchestra in January 2026 and Mozart's Sinfonia Concertante with both the Vanbrugh Ensemble and the Bromley Youth Music Trust.

Alongside solo and chamber work, Scott has served as section principal in the RCM's orchestras, and worked professionally with the BBC Symphony Orchestra, English National Opera, English National Ballet, the Glyndebourne Sinfonia, Gustav Mahler Youth Orchestra and Covent Garden Sinfonia.
