John Lill CBE (born 17 March 1944, London) is an English classical pianist.
Lill studied at the Royal College of Music and with Wilhelm Kempff. His talent emerged at an early age, and he gave his first piano recital at the age of nine. At age 18, he performed Rachmaninoff's 3rd Piano Concerto under Sir Adrian Boult. This was followed by his much-acclaimed 1963 London debut playing Ludwig van Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 at the Royal Festival Hall. In 1970 he won the Moscow International Tchaikovsky Competition (ex-aequo with Vladimir Krainev). It was said by Sidney Harrison that "he (John Lill) simply devours Beethoven. I set him work for the week - he does that and more."
Lill has made a number of recordings, including the complete piano concertos of Beethoven, Brahms and Rachmaninoff and the complete piano sonatas of Beethoven and Prokofiev.
Lill has performed in over fifty countries, both as a recitalist and as a concerto soloist. He has worked in the major European concert cities, including Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, Prague, Rome, Stockholm and Vienna, as well as in Russia, the Far East and Australasia (including several Australian Broadcasting Corporation tours). He has also performed in the United States with the Symphony Orchestras of Cleveland, New York, Philadelphia, Dallas, Seattle, Baltimore, Boston, Washington, D.C. and San Diego.

Flintlock made a serious series about music. In this edition they talk with and accompany the world renowned concert pianist John Lill OBE and Bill plays a classical piece on the grand piano under the critical eye and ear of the Maestro. Apologies for the quality. The 35 year old home recorded videocassette copy was not in great condition.
In structure, Beethoven's Piano Concerto in B-flat Major shares many traits with Mozart’s piano concertos, but in style it displays many daring deviations which are unquestionably Beethoven and reveal a remarkably sure hand belying the youthfulness of its composer.
In this interview filmed at Malvern Theatres John Lill describes the inevitability of becoming a pianist, his East London working class roots, and the tragedy and humour of Beethoven. He discusses pivotal moments in his 60-year career, his acclaimed performance in the Tchaikovsky Piano Competition, and recording versus recitals. He also expresses his opinion of Yamaha's CFX concert Grand. For more information visit http://www.yamaha.com

The black community's reaction online to Lil Wayne's Nightline interview in which he spoke about Black Lives Matter has been tremendous. All throughout social media, specifically Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, have been lit up all night Tuesday night and all day Wednesday with reactions to the interview. Many have resorted to simple name calling, giving Wayne the “uncle tom” and “coon” names, as per usual when someone deviates from the Black Hive Mind mentality. There are others who say he is “out of touch” and “on drugs” because of his divergent viewpoint. Not many people want to deal with the reality of what he said. What does the “Black Lives Matter” group have to do with him… or anyone else that isn’t actually in the group? Sure, they purport themselves as being champions of b...

I 1987 red man på en bølge af succes på baggrund af filmen Valhalla af Peter Madsen, som blev meget populær, derfor valgte man at få lavet 14 kortfilm til tysk tv, om og med Quark, hvor man følger ham fra starten, altså som baby, det blev dog aldrig rigtig en succes, da øllet nok virkede lidt for tyndt, altså det virkede meget søgt og havde ikke den store dybde, derfor blev der kun lavet 6 kortfilm og det er dem jeg deler med jer her. Et lille fact: Vidste i at det er John Cleese som er fortæller stemmen i den engelske udgave af Valhalla/Quark.

Now in this book there are a lot of stories about talking animals: talking snakes, and birds, and fish; and about people who try to communicate with them.
John Lilly, the guy who says he can talk to dolphins, said he was in an aquarium and he was talking to a big whale who was swimming around and around in his tank. And the whale kept asking him questions telepathically. And one of the questions the whale kept asking was: do all oceans have walls?
