CONCERT ADMISSION AS PER PROGRAMME OF EVENTS
EXHIBITION - The Greenwich Exhibition of Early Musical Instruments is the largest Early Music Exhibition of its kind! A wide cross-section of early instrument makers from around the globe, shops, music publishers, societies, recording companies and early music forums all gathered under one roof. This is the perfect opportunity to compare, contrast and hopefully buy the instrument you had always promised yourself! Exhibitors will be demonstrating, displaying and selling their products and providing advice on all aspects of these instruments from basic servicing, finishing and string replacement to decoration and troubleshooting.
An array of superb instruments will be on display and for sale including harpsichords, clavichords, spinets, organs, viols, baroque violins, mediaeval fiddles, lutes, harps, hurdy-gurdies, crumhorns, shawms, rebecs, pipes, sackbutts, trumpets, drums, tabors, and an incredible variety of recorders.
