Intimate but lofty central London music venue with a programme of more than 400 concerts a year, featuring Lieder, early music, chamber works and occasional jazz, performed by international A-list soloists and ensembles. Somewhat of a lifestyle concert destination, the Wigmore is less sexy than ROH Covent Garden [see entry] and marginally less snooty/stuffy/stiff. But the lovely Sunday deal includes a one-hour late-morning high-quality concert followed by a coffee, juice of civilised sherry for just £16. The building was constructed at the previous turn of the century from a design by Thomas Edward Collcutt, whose other celebrated works include the Savoy and the Palace Theatre.

a great little hall
brilliant acoustics - clientele is mostly elderly Jewish couples and gay men - a great audience - no coughing of phones - you could hear a pin drop
