Alisa Weilerstein: Fragments – Emergence
Southbank Centre, Purcell Room, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]One of the foremost cellists of our time interweaves new music by Joseph Hallman, Thomas Larcher, Jeffrey Mumford and Carlos Simon with Bach’s Third Cello Suite.
In the cellist’s groundbreaking series FRAGMENTS, new music by some of today’s most compelling composers meets the timeless beauty of Bach’s Cello Suites, each within its own theatrical setting.
Amongst individual movements of Bach’s Cello Suite No.3 in C, this performance interweaves new works by Joseph Hallman, Thomas Larcher, Jeffrey Mumford and Carlos Simon.
FRAGMENTS, Alisa Weilerstein’s multi-year commissioning project, is a collection of six different performances in total, curated by Weilerstein and underscored with bespoke lighting, scenic architecture and costume design from a world-class team of creatives.
Featuring 27 different composers in total, each of the six FRAGMENTS performances embodies its own striking identity that transforms the six Bach Cello suites in turn.
Alisa Weilerstein is known for her consummate artistry, emotional investment and rare interpretive depth. She was recognised with a MacArthur ‘genius grant’ fellowship in 2011. Today her career is truly global in scope.
Weilerstein is a Southbank Centre Resident Artist for Classical Music: Spring/Summer 2026.
