Wigmore Hall New Autumn Series includes 100 concerts livestreamed from 13 September - 21 December 2020
'It is a huge joy to announce that we will have 100 concerts between now and Christmas. Alongside the core chamber and song repertoire I have encouraged artists to explore 20th and 21st century composers and a diversity of repertoire throughout the series.'
John Gilhooly, Director
