Barbara Hannigan live in London

Experience Barbara Hannigan live on April 8th

Barbara Hannigan will perform at Barbican Hall in London on April 8, 2027. Hannigan is a Canadian soprano and conductor renowned for her interpretations of 20th and 21st-century vocal repertoire, alongside core classical works. Her musical style is characterized by a highly intelligent and emotionally nuanced approach, often focusing on contemporary composers like Ligeti, Berg, and Unsuk Chin, but also demonstrating significant skill in Mozart, Schubert and Strauss. She frequently performs as both a singer *and* conductor, sometimes simultaneously – a relatively rare practice.

Barbican Hall is a concert venue located within the Barbican Centre, a Grade II listed modernist estate in the City of London. Opened in 1982, it is celebrated for its acoustics which were extensively remodelled and improved between 2017-2021 to enhance clarity and warmth. The hall is designed primarily for orchestral and chamber music performances but also hosts solo recitals. It’s known for its relatively intimate atmosphere despite its capacity of approximately 1,943 seats.
