Timothy Ridout live in London

Experience Timothy Ridout live on September 28th

Violinist Timothy Ridout will perform at Wigmore Hall, London on September 28, 2026. Ridout is recognised for his intensely expressive and technically assured performances of both standard repertoire and lesser-known works. His playing is often described as possessing a rich tonal palette and a compelling narrative quality, frequently focusing on Romantic and 20th/21st-century compositions. He has garnered awards including the International Violin Competition “Premio Paganini” in 2018 and the Royal Philharmonic Society Young Artist Award in 2019.

Wigmore Hall holds a significant place in London’s cultural landscape. Opened in 1901, it was commissioned by Charles Beauchamp Ames as a domestic music room within his house. Unlike larger concert halls, Wigmore Hall was designed with acoustics specifically suited to chamber music and song recitals, establishing its reputation as a premier venue for these genres. It is renowned for its intimate atmosphere and exceptional sound quality, attracting internationally acclaimed musicians. The hall operates as an independent not-for-profit organisation, dedicated to presenting performances of the highest artistic calibre and supporting emerging artists.
