YCAT Wigmore Hall Lunchtime Concerts 2024

A core part of YCAT’s offer to our artists is the chance to perform a recital as part of our distinguished Lunchtime Concert Series at Wigmore Hall.

Small tours of the UK are also built around each recital, providing vital opportunities for artists to perform and bringing each artist's programme to a wider UK audience.

We are delighted to present the YCAT Artists performing in the next round of the 2023/24 series of YCAT - Wigmore Hall Lunchtime Concerts, beginning in February 2024.
