Music at the Abbey

For the past three years the Abbey has hosted an informal series of chamber music concerts. Young musicians of extraordinary talent and international stature have come from all over Europe to share their art and draw sustenance from the peaceful and supportive environment they find here. As audiences grow and more and more musicians are drawn to the Abbey's unique atmosphere it is intended to have at least one concert each month throughout the winter and spring.

Please note that all programmes are subject to change: to stay informed of concerts at the Abbey please join the Music at the Abbey mailing list, by emailing dylan@theabbey.uk.com quoting 'subscribe' in the subject line.  Our web site will also be updated whenever possible.

Luiz Gustavo has a great talent and lots of possibilities… His touch reflects imagination, sensibility and intelligence.
