Wigmore Hall’s focus on the work of Thomas Larcher launched earlier this season with a star-studded weekend devoted to the Austrian composer’s instantly arresting and lastingly affecting music. In this concert he performs the world première of a new work written for Alban Gerhardt, the latest in a series of pieces commissioned by Jennifer Roslyn Wingate in memory of her parents.

The programme also includes music by expressive influences on Larcher’s soundworld, from the rhythmic energy of Schumann’s rarely heard ‘Five pieces in folk style’ to the expansive lyricism of Schubert’s radiant Arpeggione Sonata.
