Overview

Wigmore Soloists, a flexible ensemble led by Michael Collins and created with Wigmore Hall’s Director, John Gilhooly, unlock the devilish drama of The Soldier's Tale, Stravinsky’s groundbreaking theatrical work of 1918, a cautionary parable about the dangers of selling one’s soul for the promise of untold riches.
