His awards include first prize at the London International Music Competition in 2001, the Maisie Lewis Award in 2001 and Bronze Medal in the Rachmaninoff International Piano Competition and Festival in Los Angeles.

Fazliddin is known for his engaging romantic sentiment, subtle emotional transformations and exceptional technique. His repertoire is wide ranging, being equally at home with baroque music as contemporary.

Fazliddin Husanov was born in Tashkent, Uzbekistan in 1978 and grew up in a musical family. He began his music education at the age of six in specialist school, Tashkent Conservatoire, under Professor Tamara Popovitsch. He made his concerto debut just four years later, at the age of 10. This acclaimed performance led to several concerto engagements in the years that followed.

At the age of sixteen Fazliddin received tuition from Ley Naumov in Moscow and from Reinhard Becker at the Trossingen State College of Music in Germany.

In September 2000 Fazliddin moved to Wales to further his studies under the tutelage of Dr Michael Schreider at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama. At this time he was delighted to be able to collaborate with leading pianists such as Victor Merzhanov, Micheal Beroff, John Lil and Christopher Elton.

Just one year later, after an outstanding diploma recital, he was subsequently elected to the teaching panel at the College.

Fazliddin is currently in demand as a teacher, recitalist and increasingly a chamber musician, regularly receiving invitations to coach and perform in summer schools and at festivals in the UK and across Europe.
