A NUMBER of world-class singers have already stepped through the Wigmore Hall's doors in the fortnight since the new season began. And now comes the legendary Spanish diva Teresa Berganza. Accompanied by Juan Antonio Alvarez Parejo, the mezzo-soprano airs native repertoire by Granados, Turina and Halffter, as well as further songs by Mussorgsky, Brahms and Rossini.

The exciting young ensemble Psappha turns its attention to Frank Zappa (right), with four of the American iconoclast's key compositions which have been specially arranged for the group by Philip Cashian. Aside from the Zappa, there's also room for John Adams's recent quirky Clarinet Concerto, "Gnarly Buttons", with Dov Goldberg taking the solo line.
