This was the first of our livestreamed Sunday Concerts, using new, state-of-the-art equipment.
Fenella Humphreys’ online performances during lockdown drew praise from audiences and critics alike. Her chosen programme, with Director of Music Simon Callaghan, spans more than 200 years and was the perfect selection to bring back to life our extraordinary Main Hall.
• Programme:
Mozart – Violin Sonata in G K301
Pärt – Spiegel im Spiegel
Franck – Violin Sonata in A

Fenella Humphreys, winner of the 2018 BBC Music Magazine Instrumental Award, has won critical admiration and audience acclaim with the lyrical grace and intensity of her playing. Described in the press as “alluring”, “unforgettable” and “a wonder”, Fenella is one of the UK’s most established and versatile violinists. She enjoys a busy career combining chamber music and solo work, performing in prestigious venues around the world.
Praised for his ‘velvet-gloved pianism of ravishing sensitivity’ (The Strad), Steinway Artist Simon Callaghan performs internationally as a soloist and chamber musician. His recent tours have taken him to Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, Hong Kong, Canada and throughout Europe. He has performed at all of the UK’s major concert halls, and has recorded for Hyperion, Nimbus, Lyrita, Somm, Danacord and Convivium.

Founded in the 1880s, our chamber music concert series is the longest-running of its kind in Europe. Conway Hall was purpose-built in 1929 to host concerts and lectures, and they have continued here until the present day. The ethos of “affordable classical music for all” still remains.
