Simon Lepper

Ilker Arcayürek

Wigmore Hall

Born in Istanbul and raised in Vienna, the tenor has emerged as one of the most exciting and versatile vocal artists of recent years: a finalist at BBC Cardiff Singer of the World and winner of the International Art Song Competition of Germany’s Hugo Wolf Academy. Schumann's Kerner Lieder were composed in 1840, his 'Liederjahr', but hold a special place as the first cycle composed in the time immediately following his hard-sought marriage to Clara Wieck.
