About this event
This chamber concert spotlights the Leonkoro Quartet, Associate Artists at Wigmore Hall after their 2022 victory at the Wigmore Hall International String Quartet Competition, where they won First Prize and nine specialist awards. Celebrated for their seductive sound, miraculous blend, and spellbinding collective artistry, the ensemble unveils a new string quartet by Finnish composer Sauli Zinovjev—described by the Wall Street Journal as brisk, exciting, and unpredictable—co-commissioned by the Wiener Konzerthaus and Wigmore Hall. Framing the premiere are cornerstones of the repertoire by Beethoven and Schubert, designed to showcase the quartet’s range from classical clarity to romantic lyricism. The hall’s intimate acoustics heighten the interplay among the four musicians, while youth-access initiatives (Under 35s and CAVATINA free tickets for 16–24) expand the reach of this contemporary chamber music event.
