Many Blackheath residents have been devotees of classical music lectures given by
MATTHEW TAYLOR in the Recital Room of
Blackheath Concert Halls on Mondays during term time. Matthew has been the composer in residence at the Halls and is a prolific pianist and a fine conductor. He started this class over 20 years ago as an ILEA music appreciation class.
Each term is devoted to a subject. It may be devoted to one composer or a group of composers. Some series have been built around particular types of work such as Beethoven symphonies and more recently Mozart concertos – sometimes a series is built round a particular period such as British Music 1920-1940.
Lectures are from 10 am to midday on a Monday with an interval.
