    Overview

    The need to refresh the chamber music repertoire is recognised here with the launch of a co-commissioning partnership between Wigmore Hall, The Radcliffe Trust and NMC Recordings

    Mark-Anthony Turnage’s new work for the Belcea Quartet will be followed in coming seasons with the premières of scores by fellow British composers Simon Holt, Anthony Gilbert, Helen Grime, Donnacha Dennehy and Paul Newland. Jonathan Biss joins the Belceas to perform Brahms’s early masterwork, the Piano Quintet in F minor Op. 34.
