About this concert

Almost four years have passed since Alice Coote and Julius Drake first unveiled their thoughts on Schubert’s inexhaustible song-cycle at Wigmore Hall. Their account of Winterreise was acclaimed then for its ‘searing musical strength’ and for its ‘startling’ insights into the work’s tragic journey through the realms of heartbreak and despair. Those qualities will surely have been magnified by their subsequent explorations of Winterreise elsewhere and deepened by time’s passing.

This event is part of the Alice Coote: A Celebration series.
