What's on

Steven Isserlis is a cellist whose passion for music transcends conventional divisions. Acclaimed worldwide for his musicality and technique alike, he is equally at home drawing the audience into his circle of friends for chamber music or in a recital; delving into the historical archives to emerge with a forgotten gem; or on the concert platform with some of the world’s most prestigious orchestras and conductors. He plays the Feuermann Stradivarius of 1730, kindly loaned by The Nippon Music Foundation of Japan. His programme of Schumann will include Fantasiestücke op 73; Violin sonata No 3 (arr Isserlis); Romances op 94; Stücke im Volkston op 102; and Adagio and Allegro op 70.

“The music world – and music itself – is infinitely richer for the presence of Steven Isserlis.” Gramophone Magazine
