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
Step into a candlelit Baroque sanctuary and surrender to the lyrical genius of Franz Schubert. Leading UK chamber musicians bring the serene Notturno in E-flat and the beloved 'Trout' Piano Quintet to life in an intimate concert setting.In the candlelit splendour of the Baroque church of St Mary le Strand, vaulted ceilings and polished stone walls create an intimate acoustic space. Leading UK chamber musicians open with Schubert’s Notturno in E-flat for Piano Trio, its serene lines unfolding in a tapestry of piano, violin and cello. The second half unveils the joyous interplay of Schubert’s Piano Quintet in A major, affectionately known as 'The Trout', where playful motifs ripple between four strings and piano with radiant warmth. Audiences both familiar with chamber repertoire and newcomers alike will be swept up by the work’s melodic charm and the musicians’ vivid communication. For those seeking an elevated experience, exclusive VIP tickets offer front-row seating, a welcome glass of Prosecco, a signed CD and a brief pre-concert chat with the artists.
