The Music Room
The excellent acoustic and intimate proportions provide an ideal setting for chamber music and solo recitals. The King of Hearts promotes its own Lunchtime Concerts and two yearly Festivals of music and storytelling in May and October, with an emphasis on Early and Baroque music. Harpsichord and Lute recitals, storytelling and literary readings are regular events. Acoustic Jazz and
Folk also work well, and the room is available for hire to performers
wishing to promote their own event.
