Pierre-Laurent Aimard live in London

Experience Pierre-Laurent Aimard live on September 19th

Pierre-Laurent Aimard will perform at Wigmore Hall, London on September 19, 2026. Aimard is internationally recognised for his interpretations of both standard repertoire and contemporary music, often noted for their intellectual rigour and technical precision. He frequently champions the work of composers such as Ligeti, Messiaen – whose music he studied with – and has premiered numerous pieces by living composers. His playing is characterised by a clarity of articulation and a thoughtful approach to phrasing, extending beyond purely Romantic interpretations to encompass a broader range of stylistic expression.

Wigmore Hall holds a significant place in London’s musical landscape. Opened in 1901, it was originally built as the Bechstein Hall, intended to showcase pianos manufactured by C. Bechstein. It quickly became renowned for its exceptional acoustics, specifically suited to chamber music and recital performances. Throughout its history, the hall has hosted performances by many of the world’s leading musicians and remains dedicated to presenting classical music at the highest level. Unlike larger concert venues, Wigmore Hall maintains a relatively intimate setting with a capacity of approximately 544 seats, fostering a close connection between performers and audience.
