Overview
In company with her regular duo partner, PatriciaKopatchinskaja begins her Wigmore Hall residencyby travelling through the vast range of styles,technical challenges and musical rewards of twopairs of works.
The vibrant colours and textures of Webern’s Op. 7 miniatures,which at times sound hauntingly like the human voice, and of Ravel’s Tziganerespectively complement the songful nature of Schumann’s D minor ViolinSonata and Bartók’s contemplative Violin Sonata No. 2.
Supported by the Season Patrons who have made a major contribution to the 2016/17 Wigmore Series
