About this concert

Young Californian pianist and composer Timothy Andres makes his debut at Wigmore Hall in this recital focusing on his own music and that of his contemporaries.

Praised for his ‘acute ear’ by the New York Times and a ‘stubborn nose’ by the New Yorker, Timothy Andres is an American composer-pianist whose work crosses boundaries and defies categorisation. When his debut album Shy and Mighty was released in 2010, the New Yorker observed ‘an unhurried grandeur that has rarely been felt in American music since John Adams came on the scene … more mighty than shy’.

This concert is part of Wigmore Lates @ 36, a series of late night concerts at Wigmore Hall this summer.
