Wigmore Hall

Such a lovely place to hear chamber music. All the seats are good and so are the acoustics. Notwithstanding the neighbourhood, this place is unpretentious. The music really takes centre stage. On the night I was there, not only was the programme world class but I would also say that the audience was also very sophisticated.

What a very nice hall !
It has got great acoustics, and you feel somehow like in a fancy church :)
Apparently, ticket prices sell here for much cheaper than at the Albert Hall…
To be visited for sure !!!

Beautiful venue, excellent sound quality: classical music lovers should go at least once for the experience.

Its good place, i like it.

A Sunday morning coffee concert @ Wigmore, is low key, nourishing, yet often packed with like-​minded chamber music lovers. It reminds me Derek Walcott’s lines ‘‘Give wine… Give back your heart to itself, to the stranger who has loved you…” Bumping into old friends and sharing sherry together (part of the coffee concerts perks :) is sweet.
I took time to appreciate the Cupola, a small, dome-​like structure, on top of the front building. The central figure is the Soul of Music. LHS is a musician playing in a trance, seeking inspiration from beyond; RHS is a seated composer, transcribing music onto a scroll. My appreciation of the striving of humanity after the elusiveness of music just prepared us for the genuine performance to come.
The seats are far from comfortable yet the acoustic design draws all the attention. Beyond the Sunday morning coffee concerts, Wigmore has a variety series, i.e. London Pianoforte, Song recitals, BBC lunch time concerts. I also went on some young up risers’ debut and listened to some international groups making their marks. Thanks for NG’s intro.
It’s old in design and new in spirit :)

What I love about Wigmore Hall is how intimate it feels. The music that it specialises, Chamber music, excels in a venue like this. The reliefs on the walls are Art Deco, though the seating upholstery is a bit dated now. Performance prices start from £10. The bar/​restaurant downstairs is a bit pricey, but a nice option if you so desire.

Much as I love the majesty and volume of orchestras, my favourite genre of classical music is probably chamber music. I like the cleaner sound and the ability to tease out and really hear each of the parts separately and more clearly
Located just off Oxford Street, Wigmore is a lovely classical music venue specialising in chamber music. It has a lovely intimate feel to it and is close to the main tourist areas for meals before or after the concert.
Over the years, I’ve heard some great soloists as well as chamber groups perform everything from Schubert to Debussy to Mahler. This year, they’re hosting the International Song Competition.
They also broadcast live on BBC3 once a week if you wanted to get a flavour of the venue and artists playing there before actually attending an event

Wigmore Hall is an outstanding venue for classical music performances. Seating is comfortable and the acoustics are excellent.
There are a restaurant and bar on the premises if you want to dine or enjoy drinks before the concert.
Ticket prices vary but we have paid as little as £12 for a performance.

This is a brilliant venue that is famous for its classical music and jazz concerts. A concert held here is always a good one. I have gone here on numerous occasions, and have never been disappointed once.
They also have many events and concerts aimed at young people and families.
There is also a fine restaurant and bar that is open daily.
Check website for details on upcoming events.

Perfect for a lazy sunday morning — concerts start at 11:30am, finish by 12:45 and cost just £10 per ticket. You get a free coffee, tea, juice or sherry for after the performance included in that price too. Very popular with older people.

My grandparents have been going to Wigmore Hall nearly every Sunday morning for years to listen to the live classical concerts there, and they are always full of praise. There also have a good restaurant so that you can enjoy a light lunch after the performance.
