The first of this month’s Lunchtime Concerts takes place this Wednesday 4 March, with the Deputy Director of Music, Daniel Harding, in a piano recital.

Focusing on the ideas of simplicity and beauty, the programme includes ‘Variations for Judith,’ a suite of reflections on the aria ‘Bist du bei mir’ by a selection of contemporary composers, to be performed in the presence of the suite’s dedicatee, Judith Serota.

The recital also includes pieces by Erik Satie, Amy Beach and the UK premiere of the Bill Evans-esque ‘Unicorn in Rainbows’ by Hertfordshire-based composer, Alison Wrenn.

The concert starts as usual at 13.10. Admission is free. Read more about the concert.
