Overview

Billed as ‘the only band that sets its audience dancing to Goethe and Schiller’, the genre-defying Erlkings perform high-octane energy of folk/rock to brilliant arrangements Schubert's finest songs, cleverly adapted for the modern English speaking audience.

The group’s Wigmore Hall debut offers a scintillating set of Erlking hits.

The Wigmore Hall Bar will be open after the concert for more late night Jazz and drinks. Free with your ticket, Jazz pianist Wilbur Whitta will be performing from 11:00PM.
