Armchair Concerts

Following a series of sell-out concerts in the Summer, this autumn the award-winning violist Dominic Stokes returns for five exciting recitals. In the intimate surroundings of the Withdrawing Room, the performances will include work by Handel, Bach and Purcell alongside contemporary pieces that suit the dramatic 18th-century atmosphere of the house.

Guests will be served a glass of Cremant or a soft drink in the atmospheric ground-floor Dining Room before taking their seats on the first floor for an evening of emotive music in magical surroundings.

Numbers are strictly limited to fourteen guests per performance. Please book your tickets early to ensure we can accommodate you at these very special evenings.
