Terrific opening night for 2025-26 season @wigmore_hall , with magnificent Matthias Goerne accompanied by David Fray in Schubert's extraordinary Schwanengesang; the pianist then provided a riveting account of the composer's final piano sonata. Magic.

I've called on the UK government to step up to its legal and moral obligation to stop ALL arms sales to Israel. This is crucial to help ensure a permanent ceasefire. #StopArmingIsrael

Tonight saw the end of the wonderful, highly illuminating concert cycle curated by @juliusdrake of songs by Fx Mendelssohn & (especially revelatory) Liszt @wigmore_hall this season: superb singers throughout, culminating with Sarah Connolly & Roderick Williams. Sheer delight.

President Trump seriously just claimed that Vladimir Putin fought in World War II. "I talked to Putin. He lost 51 million people (in WWII) and he did fight… He fought with us in World War II and everybody hates him.”
