A nice little concert hall, great for classical music and a casual Chillax night!
If you are under 35 there are often special deals as where for just £5 a ticket plus online booking fee! Bargain!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jean-Frederick M.London, Vereinigtes Königreich626287. Nov. 2013
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 !!!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Vanessa A.London, Vereinigtes Königreich1062238219. Juni 2011
Beautiful venue, excellent sound quality: classical music lovers should go at least once for the experience.

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 :)Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Neal E.London, Vereinigtes Königreich629162. Feb. 2010
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 eventHelpful 8Thanks 0Love this 9Oh no 0 - TootTootTootsie G.New York, Vereinigte Staaten1328813819. Jan. 2009Erster Beitrag
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.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Qype User (Photog…)London, Vereinigtes Königreich71062. Nov. 2008
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.
