Musicians

Aylesbury Lunchtime Music continues to grow in popularity with performers who appreciate the beautiful Grade I listed venue, receptive audience, great acoustic, strong marketing and Kawai grand piano.

Performing for us

The Aylesbury Lunchtime Music series of concerts is popular with performers and dates are filled very quickly. There are concerts every month except August and a break over Christmas.

We begin planning for the next calendar year after Easter. We try to have a varied programme of soloists and ensembles. Please make sure that you are on the musicians mailing list if you are keen to perform for us. We will send out an email asking for your availability after Easter.

A brilliant opportunity for all musicians

We were established to provide an opportunity for up-and-coming new artists to perform to a ‘live’ audience. We have established links with the Royal Academy of Music and the Royal College of Music, to whom 6 concerts per year each are allocated. Some of our young musicians have gone on to win prestigious competitions including the Leeds International Piano Competition (Alim Beisembayev in 2021). The standard of playing from our young performers is consistently outstanding.

Aylesbury Lunchtime Music also have a large retinue of performers, local and international, who love to return to perform in front of our appreciative and knowledgeable crowd.

  • So well played. More please!

    “Thank you for bringing the superb Marsyas Trio to Aylesbury. It is refreshing to hear some modern pieces. The Chen Yi (Night Thoughts) was insightful and wonderfully nuanced. A great composition! And so well played. More please.”
