About the show

Discreetly nestled in central London, Wigmore Hall is one of the world’s great concert venues and is entering its 125th Season this autumn. The Hall is more than a venue, it is where audiences, artists and communities connect. In this anniversary year, we will celebrate all that Wigmore Hall has to offer with behind-the-scenes insights, artist conversations and discoveries from the archive. With new episodes every month, we’ll talk to musicians about what makes Wigmore Hall so special and how it has come to stand at the heart of the UK’s musical landscape. We will be exploring the Hall’s storied history, established and brand-new repertoire, music's place in society, and much more.
