“The gallery is a little tricky to find but we searched it out beforehand so that we were able to straight there. It was a second floor small room, intimate but accoustically good. Drinks of prosecco beforehand and then a short warm-up pianist who was excellent. The main performer had little to say about any of the pieces, but was exceptionally talented in an hour long performance of a varied and non-stereotyped pieces. All in all a very worthwhile evening though short.”
Every kind of day out, and the best of each.
