Elias String Quartet

Jonathan Biss
piano

As the 2012/13 season unfolds, Jonathan Biss is set to present over 30 concerts worldwide devoted to the music of Schumann and its multi-faceted nature.
Schumann: Under the Influence continues at Wigmore Hall carrying the American pianist’s desire to present the composer’s music ‘exactly as it is – deeply poetic, fragile, obsessive, evocative, whimsical, internal’. Pre- and post-echoes of the Schumannesque will also sound in each programme, creating concerts rich in fantasy, emotional contrasts and fleeting moods.
The Jonathan Biss Schumann Series is supported by Dunard Fund.

Henry Purcell : Fantasias (a selection)
