In 1974 he made his London debut with a recital at the Wigmore Hall (Beethoven, Schumann, Bartók and Liszt). That year he won joint second place at the BBC Piano Competition (first place was not awarded). This led to broadcasts on BBC radio in a performance of Rachmaninoff's ''Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini''.〔(Naxos )〕 In 1977, he was 5th placed finalist in the inaugural Sydney International Piano Competition.〔(SIPCA website )〕 He entered the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow but was not a finalist.〔(Gramophone )〕 Fowke made his Proms debut in 1979 with a performance of John Ireland’s ''Piano Concerto in E-flat major'', with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra under Simon Rattle.〔 His other appearances at the Proms include Constant Lambert's Piano Concerto and Richard Addinsell's ''Warsaw Concerto''.
