What's on this week: classical music in London
It was sunny when we excitedly launched our summer season last week, but this week’s forecasted thunderstorms have put a little bit of a damper on things.
Luckily, a scheduled mini-heatwave next week should lift our spirits, and there are loads of great [indoor] concerts over the next two months to keep you busy until then.
Before we return to The Speakeasy (last year’s visit pictured above) in July, we’ve got two noisenights just around the corner at The Jago - Aaron Akugbo and Milo Harper debut on 29 April, and Third Culture Collective bring their sell-out show from a recent tour of India on 13 May with Ashnaa.
You can find out about both of those here, and find something in the meantime below.

DEBUT return to Rotherhithe’s Brunel Museum for another intimate classical concert in the Thames tunnel shaft
