Presenting professional
classical music concerts
& excursions
for all to enjoy


Welcome to
Berkhamsted Music


We hold five chamber music concerts a year in Berkhamsted and organise excursions to concerts at London venues. Our events can be booked online or through the contact details below. Berkhamsted concert tickets are available at the door.

Updates:

The Cygnus Trio, standing in at short notice for the Eblana String Trio, delivered a performance where youthful ebullience and joy were matched by wonderful musicianship and beautifully responsive chamber playing.  They introduced us to some little known Spanish trios by Arbós and Turina in the first half, played with equal intensity by all three members, two of whom are Spanish; the novelty of these, as well as the excellent performance, were warmly appreciated by the audience.  In the second half, they delivered a winning performance of Beethoven’s Archduke trio.

Our next concert on 6 December features the Marsyas Trio (flute, cello and piano) playing Haydn, Martinu, Debussy and Fanny Mendelssohn.
