Few left: book now

Forty minutes of music on the floor cushions; babies and toddlers welcome.

Short pieces, a story told with the instruments, and a chance to sit close enough to feel the cello. Children can come and go; nobody minds a noise.

Buggies stay in the foyer. The Vestry is step-free from the river door.

Before you come

Everything about your visit
When do the doors open?

At 10:45, for the foyer, the bar and The Vestry. Seats are unreserved unless it says otherwise.

How long is it?

It starts at 11:00 and ends at about 11:40.

Is there a bar?

The Yard bar opens with the doors and through every interval: local beer and cider, wine, soft drinks and coffee. You can take drinks into the Nave in our glasses.

Can I bring children?

Yes, to anything without an age on its page. Under-fives come free to the Sunday at Four concerts and the family mornings, sitting on a lap.

What if I arrive late?

We let latecomers in at a suitable break, to the back of the hall or the gallery. For theatre that is the interval.

Where you’ll sit

The Vestry

Two tall windows onto the river, a brick wall and a good piano. Our talks happen here, and so do most of the city’s choir rehearsals.

  • 60 seated rows
  • 24 boardroom
  • 40 long tables
The Vestry set for a talk: sixty wooden chairs in rows, an oak lectern and two tall arched windows with morning light.
The foyer and box office, where you come in.

Also this week

Hands on a double bass in amber light, a drum kit and piano out of focus behind.
