Laurence Kilsby live in London

Experience Laurence Kilsby live on December 6th

Laurence Kilsby, a British countertenor celebrated for his interpretations of baroque and early classical repertoire, will perform at Wigmore Hall on December 6th, 2026. Kilsby’s performances are noted for their technical precision, expressive phrasing, and a focus on historically informed performance practice. He frequently collaborates with period instrument ensembles and is recognised for exploring lesser-known works alongside established composers such as Handel and Purcell. His vocal style is characterised by clarity and agility, often highlighting the dramatic qualities within the music.

Wigmore Hall holds a distinguished position in London’s musical landscape. Opened in 1901, it was originally designed as a private concert hall for the Bechstein piano company, intended to showcase their instruments. Unlike larger venues, its intimate size – seating approximately 544 – provides exceptional acoustics and a close connection between performers and audience. Throughout its history, Wigmore Hall has become renowned as a premier venue for chamber music, song recitals, and instrumental performances. It has hosted countless leading musicians and continues to be valued for its dedication to artistic excellence and unwavering commitment to live performance.
