Internationally known as a free improviser on piano and electronics, Steve Beresford has also scored feature films and music for TV and commercials.

He was born in Wellington, Shropshire in 1950. In 1974 he moved to London, playing piano - with improvisers like Derek Bailey - and also trumpet with the notorious Portsmouth Sinfonia, which included Brian Eno and Gavin Bryars.

He has had a long association with Swiss artist/musician Christian Marclay, performing realisations of Marclay's 'Screen Play', 'Ephemera', 'Graffiti Composition', 'Shuffle', 'Pianorama' and 'Everyday', sometimes solo and sometimes with groups.

2014 sees the third tour of 'Indeterminacy', in which comedian Stewart Lee reads one-minute stories by John Cage whilst Beresford and fellow pianist Tania Chen play music.

Beresford plays with and conducts the London Improvisers Orchestra every month. He also regularly collaborates with musicians such as Elaine Mitchener, Blanca Regina, John Butcher, Satoko Fukuda and Shabaka Hutchings, playing at venues like Café Oto in Dalston, London.

He is also curator at Strange Umbrellas and Miss Havisham which present of free improvisation and art. 

Steve was awarded a Paul Hamlyn award for composers in 2012.
