As a concert pianist, Dr. Samantha Ege's performances bring her research to life, taking on different formats, sometimes entwining narration and conversation alongside more conventional programming. She made her Barbican debut in 2021 with a "vivid, revelatory recital" (iNews) in which she gave the UK premiere of Vítězslava Kaprálová's Sonata Appassionata. She also gave the world premiere of Florence Price's complete Fantasie Nègre at the 2021 London Festival of American Music. She has performed across the UK, Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia. She has also played with the BBC Philharmonic, Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra, Oakland Symphony Orchestra, Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, New Haven Symphony Orchestra, and Yale Philharmonia.
