About this concert

Royal Over-Seas League Music Competition Gold Medallist in 2010 and Second Prize winner in this year’s Kathleen Ferrier Award, Jonathan McGovern, joins pianist James Cheung for a diverse programme of Schubert favourites, dynamic Brahms and some of Wolf’s magical Mörike settings. Fellow Kirckman artists, the Barbirolli Quartet, return to Wigmore Hall to join forces for a programme that also includes Barber’s brooding Dover Beach and Britten’s String Quartet No. 1.
