2019/20 SEASON APRIL - JULY 2020 2 • Director’s Introduction • 3 We are looking forward to a summer packed full of fun, ambitious and exceptional performances. Leading soprano Roberta Invernizzi gathers a host of friends to celebrate women Baroque composers in April, while acclaimed Norwegian pianist Leif Ove Andsnes returns for his second appearance in the season, performing a solo recital for two evenings in a row. Wigmore Hall continues to champion contemporary composers and emerging artists, and in May we combine the two endeavours in a Composer in Focus day featuring musicians from the Royal Northern College of Music. Saturday 9 May will spotlight the work of ‘the renaissance woman of contemporary British music’, Errollyn Wallen. Further explorations of the music of Britten, Brahms and Beethoven thread through the summer programme, including the culmination of Jonathan Biss’ Beethoven sonata cycle, a concert dedicated to Britten’s Canticles with Allan Clayton, Iestyn Davies and others, and more Brahms from the Castalian String Quartet, joined in April by Nils Mönkemeyer and Ursula Smith. Sir András Schiff will lecture on and perform Schubert’s D960 in April and Beethoven’s final piano sonatas in June.Rachel Podger continues her focus on Bach in her residency, and the wonderful Concertgebouw Winds with Jeroen Bal on piano presents a BBC lunchtime concert at the end of April. Les Talens Lyriques presents a programme of love songs with renowned tenor Julian Prégardien in May, followed less than a week later by Lionel Meunier’s ensemble Vox Luminis and a programme featuring more Britten – his Hymn to St Cecilia and Sacred and Profane top and tail the performance. On Easter Saturday, Fretwork presents a superb evening of music with vocal ensemble Gallicantus, featuring baritone Charles Daniels as the Evangelist in a programme of Schein and Schütz. ‘No-one could accuse the Quatuor Danel of doing things by halves’, wrote Richard Whitehouse (Classical Opera) after the quartet’s first instalment of their Weinberg/Shostakovich focus in October. The quartet’s ambitious two- season series continues with Weinberg’s fifth and sixth string quartets as well as Shostakovich’s Op. 101. More summer highlights include Solomon’s Knot, pianist Francesco Piemontesi’s Schubert Cycle and a day celebrating the music of Haydn, cultivated by Israeli pianist Roman Rabinovich. Contents I am delighted to announce that Angela Hewitt, following the final concert At a Glance 4 in her Bach Odyssey series in May, will be awarded the Wigmore Medal for her outstanding contribution to chamber music both at Wigmore Hall Calendar 8 and internationally. April 10 With further appearances from Sir Bryn Terfel, Leonidas Kavakos and the May 32 JACK Quartet, we have a summer full to the brim with outstanding artists, June 57 and we look forward to welcoming you once again through our doors.

In fact, three of these songs were premiered Beethoven’s third piano concerto, Shaw looks into music in a concert by Schoenberg’s students in late 1907, history to compose music for the present. This piece in around the time that Berg met the woman whom he particular eschews fixed meter to recall the conventions would marry. In honor of the 10-year anniversary of this of early music and to highlight the natural rhythms of the meeting, he later revisited and corrected a final version of libretto. The text of this short but wonderfully involved the songs. The whole set was not published until 1928, song is taken from a poem by Francesca Turini Bufalini when Berg arranged an orchestrated version. Each song (1553-1641). Not only does the language harken back to features text by a different poet, so there is no through- an artistic period before our own, but the music flits narrative, however the songs all feature similar themes, through references of erstwhile luminaries such as revolving around night, longing, and infatuation.

Heller, PhD Hybridity and Identity in the Pan-American Jazz Piano Tradition William D. Scott, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2019 The term Latin jazz has often been employed by record labels, critics, and musicians alike to denote idioms ranging from Afro-Cuban music, to Brazilian samba and bossa nova, and more broadly to Latin American fusions with jazz. While many of these genres have coexisted under the Latin jazz heading in one manifestation or another, Panamanian pianist Danilo Pérez uses the expression “Pan-American jazz” to account for both the Afro-Cuban jazz tradition and non-Cuban Latin American fusions with jazz. Throughout this dissertation, I unpack the notion of Pan-American jazz from a variety of theoretical perspectives including Latinx identity discourse, transcription and musical analysis, and hybridity theory.

Allegretto moderato – Prestissimo 10.00 Total time 70.26 Jonathan Biss, piano 2 Sonatas 15, 16, 21 (‘Waldstein’) Beethoven wrote his 32 piano sonatas over the course of 27 years; only four of those years, from the turbulent centre of Beethoven’s altogether turbulent life, are represented on this album. And yet, despite that narrow span of time, the range of expression in these sonatas is anything but narrow. (That this would be the case with more-or-less any three of the 32 sonatas explains why the project of recording the lot of them is so irresistible.) It is, in fact, infinite, moving in turn from subtle to sly, to, finally, cosmic. The first two sonatas heard here were written primarily in 1801, a year that brought dramatic shifts in Beethoven’s conception of the sonata. It was in that year that Beethoven announced to Czerny that he would be taking a “new path”.
