BBT Live – Wednesdays at Wilton’s
NEW CONCERT SERIES – BBT WEDNESDAYS AT WILTON’S
Room to Play – Trust in the Music
In association with Wilton’s Music Hall (London’s oldest and last surviving grand music hall), BBT is presenting a series of concerts on the final Wednesday of each month from February to June 2015 to
showcase some of the talented young musicians who have recently won BBT awards and fellowships. Radiating virtuosity, experimentation and a profound passion for their instruments, they will be some of the first players in what will be Wilton’s newly repaired and expanded cocktail bar and performance space upstairs (the final phase of Wilton’s Capital Project due to be completed autumn 2015).
Pianist and composer Kate Whitley launches the series on 25 February in the main hall with a contemporary programme including her own works, plus guest artist, guitarist Sean Shibe, who will have his own ‘upstairs’ evening on Wednesday 25 March. In April (29th) and May (27th) come two Dutch musicians, bent on proving the beauty and versatility of their instruments – recorder player Erik Bosgraaf and bassoonist Bram van Sambeek. Rounding off the series is young horn supremo Alec Frank-Gemmill (24 June).
