Recitals
The Dysart Petersham

Around our antique rosewood Bechstein grand piano

Our recital programme over several years quickly established a loyal following. 

We host a small number of private recitals over the year, where the personality and interpretation of acclaimed performers who have performed in some of the most notable venues around the World, including Wigmore and Carnegie, can be enjoyed in a salon environment. 

The presence of an audience grouped around the performer and only feet away is a rare pleasure for the performer, often playing music first composed and performed in intimate surroundings just like ours, where the directness of communication between performer and audience adds immeasurably to the music. 

Each recital now takes place on two consecutive evenings. 

On Sunday evenings there is a concert, 3 course dinner, with paired wines, with canapés and wine/beer/non alcoholic drinks served in the interval.

On the following Monday evenings, the recital is given again, with a glass of wine, beer, or soft drink served in the interval, included in the ticket price.

Audiences are limited to around 25 guests for each event.

Sunday evenings:
Doors: 5:30pm – Recital: 6:00pm – Dinner: 8:00pm approx.
Monday evenings:
Doors: 7:00pm – Recital: 7:30pm
