Ironmongers’ Hall 

This evening, I attended a Private Briefing at Ironmongers’ Hall on the plans for a new Centre for Music in the City of London.

The intention is that the Centre for Music would be located on the site currently occupied by the Museum of London at the bottom of Aldersgate Street, and would be a key feature in the City of London’s Cultural Mile.

The vision for the Centre is to develop a world- beating venue for performance and education across all musical genres.  It is proposed that the Centre harnesses the power of three internationally recognised cultural organisations – the Barbican, London Symphony Orchestra, and the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.  It will have a world-class concert hall at its heart and offer spaces for performance, education and rehearsal.

The proposed design of the Centre is breathtaking and very exciting.

It was fascinating to learn so much about this iconic project at the Private Briefing.
