It’s been over a year since the pandemic began. During this time, we’ve seen a whole range of different digital performances, projects, and concerts. If you can cast your mind back, there was a time when this wasn’t the norm.
Wigmore Hall were one of the first to start streaming performances from a venue, curating a recital series, employing musicians, and offering hope that there was a way through this crisis. These have continued over the last year and as always, the musical quality of the series has been incredible.
Not only were these performances one of the first, but they were also genuinely live. Many orchestras and musicians have livestreamed performances of previously recorded videos, but Wigmore continued to push for genuinely live content and that can only be commended.
