Ed Lyon live in London

Experience Ed Lyon live on December 28th

Ed Lyon is a British countertenor renowned for his interpretations of Baroque and classical repertoire, frequently performing works by composers such as Handel, Purcell, and Mozart. His performances are noted for their vocal agility, expressive phrasing, and dramatic sensitivity. He also actively champions lesser-known works and contemporary compositions written for the countertenor voice.

Wigmore Hall, located in central London, holds a distinguished position in the international classical music scene. Opened in 1901, it was originally built as a private concert hall for the Bechstein piano company. Unlike larger venues, Wigmore Hall was designed specifically with acoustics for chamber music and art song in mind; its relatively intimate size – seating approximately 545 – contributes to its celebrated sound quality and close connection between performers and audience.

Throughout its history, Wigmore Hall has hosted performances by many of the most significant musicians of the 20th and 21st centuries. It operates as an independent charitable organisation dedicated to presenting high-quality classical music performances and supporting young artists. The hall underwent a major refurbishment completed in 2020 which enhanced both audience facilities and acoustic properties while preserving its historical character.
