This beautiful and elegant room was extensively damaged by fire in 1995 and has been sympathetically restored to its former Georgian glory, with 5 large crystal chandeliers and two balconies.
The performance area comprises a stage with resident Steinway grand piano. It provides a wonderful ambience for chamber music and recitals. Today our diverse programme ranges from folk to jazz and everything in between and over the last two centuries some of the world’s most sought-after musicians have played in it such as violinist Niccolo Paganini and pianist Franz Liszt.
The Norfolk and Norwich Festival have also brought famous names to the room including the Amadeus, Takas and Chilingirian string quartets; Benjamin Britten & Peter Pears and even Bill Monroe and his Bluegrass Boys!
