Hamish Milne (27 April 1939 – 12 February 2020) was an English pianist known for his advocacy of Nikolai Medtner.
Milne studied at Bishop Wordsworth's School[1] in Salisbury and then at the Royal Academy of Music in London, where he taught, and later in Italy under Guido Agosti.
In the 1970s, Milne was the first pianist to offer a comprehensive survey of the piano music of Medtner since the composer made his own records.
He died on 12 February 2020, at the age of 80.[2]
