Situated on the Strand, close to Somerset House and King’s College London, St Mary le Strand is one of central London’s finest examples of English Baroque architecture. Its distinctive silhouette, ornate exterior and richly decorated interior make it a striking landmark in the heart of the city. Once surrounded by busy traffic, the church now stands within a pedestrianised public space, offering a quieter setting amid the activity of the Strand and Aldwych. A Grade I listed building, St Mary le Strand remains both an active Church of England parish church and a cultural landmark. Its architectural distinction, fascinating history and varied musical programme make it a memorable destination for visitors exploring London’s historic Strand and a characterful setting for concerts in the city centre.

Programme
Overview
Discover Beethoven’s Fifth in an intimate candlelit piano four-hands concert at Mary Le Strand, featuring acclaimed pianists Warren Mailley-Smith and Maiko Mori. Each dynamic motif is cast in a warm glow under flickering candles. An unforgettable evening of musical brilliance awaits.Step into the vaulted stone nave of Mary Le Strand, where hundreds of candles transform ancient architecture into an intimate concert hall.

From the famous four-note opening through thunderous crescendos and hushed passages, every note reverberates off Gothic arches, drawing the audience into a visceral soundscape.

Enhance your evening with a visit to nearby restaurants and bars, or opt for a VIP ticket for front-row seats, a glass of Prosecco, a signed CD and an exclusive pre-concert chat with the artists.
