  • Trio Goya

    Wigmore Hall Wigmore Hall, 36 Wigmore Street, London, London

    Light and shade, uplifting wit and insight belong to the qualities cultivated by the period-instrument players of Trio Goya. The life-enhancing partnership of violinist Kati Debretzeni, cellist Sebastian Comberti and fortepianist Maggie Cole, notes The Strad, ‘plays with a naturalness and artless simplicity that make most modern outfits sound decidedly effortful and overwrought by comparison’.
