About Colin Tilney
Artist Biography
Musician Colin Tilney's expertise on various early keyboard instruments is reflected in his recordings and in the variety of music they cover. A survivor of the first generation of musicians who brought the idea of historically informed performance to the general concertgoer's consciousness, he has remained remarkably active in late life. From 1979, Tilney taught at the University of Toronto and at Toronto's Royal Conservatory of Music, during which time he edited several printed collections of specialized Baroque repertoire, including The Art of the Unmeasured Prelude (1991). He formed his own chamber ensemble, Les Coucous Bénévoles, in 1995. Among his early recordings was an appearance on a recording of Stravinsky's The Rake's Progress, conducted by the composer. Tilney's pace barely slowed as he approached his tenth decade; in 2022, he recorded the album Two Voices: The Music of Girolamo Frescobaldi.
