Nicholas Daniel’s long and distinguished career began when, at the age of 18, he won the BBC Young Musician of the Year Competition and went on to win further competitions in Europe. As one of the UK's most distinguished soloists as well as a highly successful conductor, he has become an important ambassador for music and musicians in many different fields. In recognition of this, he was recently awarded the prestigious Queen's Medal for Music.

He made his conducting debut at the Proms in 2004 with Britten Sinfonia, of which he is an artistic associate and founder member. Nicholas has been heard on every continent, and has been a concerto soloist with many of the world’s leading orchestras and conductors.
