Mozart’s Travels
8 July 2019, 7.30pm - Wigmore Hall, London
Intro
Our season concludes with a return to Wigmore Hall for an intriguing concert exploring Mozart’s travels across Europe. The programme comprises symphonies, concertos and arias composed in London, The Hague, Paris, Munich, Vienna, Prague and Rome, beginning and ending with two of Mozart’s finest early symphonies. In between, company Associate Artist Louise Alder – winner of the Audience Prize at the 2017 BBC Cardiff Singer of the World competition – sings three exquisite arias, and principals of our outstanding period-instrument orchestra take centre stage for two of Mozart’s most popular concertos.
