Wigmore Hall is perhaps the most important venue for chamber music in London, it has responded decisively and proactively to the pandemic situation, I felt safe at all times, the public flow is managed professionally and with a smile. As for the music I really don't need to say much, some of the best musicians in the world often make a stop here, that this has restarted is a real comfort and inspiration. Not all cultural venues are even trying to get things going for a variety of reasons, and of those that try some don't get it right, Wigmore Hall is an example for others to follow for the next months, perhaps years if we are unlucky, about how to confront the virus without completely giving up on culture.

Wigmore Hall is based on Wigmore Street Marylebone London. It is a beautiful Victorian concert hall with plush red velvet seating and a small stage prefect for intimate concerts and events. The acoustics are gentle and all seats will have a fairly decent view of the stage due to the size of the hall. There is a lift down to the toilets, a bar and restaurant. Glasses are not allowed in the hall. Wonderful and frequent performances including lunchtime sessions.
Minded to write to appreciate what a wonderful concert venue this is for Londoners - indeed, international music lovers. Wigmore Hall hosts world-class talent and I always visit when I'm in London. Very worried for the arts in this middle of this crisis. To lose a place such as this would be nothing short of a tragedy. I imagine it will be supported enough to survive - but it has flourished for so long now and is a vital centre of the musical life in this city. I hope it is supported properly by government so that it can flourish again. Classical audiences are on average older, therefore there may be more resistance to audiences returning at full throttle. I devoutly hope not. Good luck to Wigmore Hall from one appreciative visitor over the years.
Amazing i have to say that when you are in good company moments are incredible
Excellent social distancing and brilliant piano recital by Elizabeth Brauss. No better way of spending an hour.
