A New Cultural Epicentre in London

London has a new cultural gem: Bechstein Hall, an extraordinary venue

dedicated to celebrating the timeless beauty of classical music.

The Concert Hall has been designed by renowned architects and acousticians.

Designed to provide an immersive experience for music lovers and connoisseurs alike, Bechstein Hall is more than just a stage - it’s an indulgence.

Located in heart of the city, Bechstein Hall combines world-class acoustics, luxurious amenities and a unique blend of culture and lifestyle. The venue is poised to redefine how

audiences experience classical music.

Director, Terence Lewis, said: "My goal is to make going to a concert a beautiful

experience. The standard 7.30pm commencement time offered elsewhere means one

cannot comfortably eat dinner before or after the performance."

He added: "Selecting Bechstein Hall as your destination will enable you to enjoy a relaxed meal before or after your preferred performance time, whether dining here at the Hall or

elsewhere."

History - the Return of Bechstein’s Crown to Wigmore Street:

In 1889, Carl Bechstein’s piano firm from Berlin chose 40 Wigmore Street as the site for its London operations. They followed their London success by establishing in 1901 a concert hall at no. 36, originally known as Bechstein Hall.

However, in 1916, during the surge of anti-German sentiment that accompanied the ongoing First World War, the property was confiscated and sold to Debenham’s for £56,500. The venue reopened the

following year under a new name: Wigmore Hall.

The Bechstein association has been absent from Wigmore Street since 1916, but the 21st century seems to demand a new approach. With the restoration of this historic recital venue, complete with all mod cons, Wigmore Street acquires a little sister to its famous hall and restores at long last the historic link between this delectable location and the firm of Bechstein itself.
