A music-themed guided walk in London’s West End, touching on the lighter side, about composers connected with the Strand and some of the places where their music was performed.
Enjoy walking through Regency London with its wide straight streets and square. Marvel at the neoclassical theatre designed by architect John Nash before embarking on the Victorian centre for entertainment before finishing in iconic Covent Garden.
Hear how European influences, including George Frederic Handel and other notable composers helped secure the future of London’s increasingly sophisticated classical music scene and how that created popular offshoots in operetta and musicals.
On this 90 min guided walk covers a variety of classical composers but also theatre and opera productions plus some world-class performance venues in London’s West End.
