This week LMC is transformed (in our minds only) into the attic of a house beside St John's Gate, Smithfield, on the northern edge of the City of London, around the year 1710. London is awash with continental composers, architects, artists of all kinds, and a famous diarist is 30 years older than the day he buried his cheese to protect it from London's Great Fire. Thomas Britton, a charcoal (or small-coal) dealer, has developed a reputation as a man of culture, particularly music, in short - a philomath ! He collects instruments, he transcribes musical scores in a fine hand, and above all, he hosts concerts in the attic of his house, concerts frequented by musicians and by some of the leading lights of London society. At the, for Thomas, unusual hour of 12.30 lunch-time, he hosts a concert, for which his invited performers come from Scotland: |
In front of the tower on the right, is that the chimney of Thomas Britton's charcoal-burner?

Music on Thursdays at LMC Leatherhead Methodist Church |
|
Music on Thursdays' 2019 season takes place in Leatherhead Methodist Church.
LMC has a pleasing acoustic for chamber music. The Church houses a fine 1970s Schiedmayer studio grand piano
which was donated anonymously and is now maintained by Steinway-trained tuner and technician Tim Hendy.
LMC has level access throughout. It is easy to accommodate a wheelchair -
we just whip out a chair and you can sit with the friends you came with.
