Ravel At Wigmore Hall

In 1909 Maurice Ravel made his first visit to London and played in a concert at the Bechstein Hall, now known as the Wigmore Hall. It seemed appropriate therefore for this Radio 3 Ravel day to record a concert of some of Ravel's best loved chamber works at the venue where he appeared 105 years ago.

The Nash Ensemble have been playing this repertoire for the 50 years of their existence and they have recorded these works at least twice. they are joined by former BBC New Generation Artist Clara Mouriz who will be singing Ravel's Chansons mad退casses for the first time.
