It’s been a busy week at the House but... it’s finally here! Our new exhibition ‘Hendrix in London’ opens tomorrow!

Drawing on remarkable archive material, the exhibition explores Hendrix’s life through the people, places and everyday moments that shaped his time here at Brook Street. From handwritten notes to dry cleaning receipts, business contracts to fan letters, these objects offer a fascinating glimpse into both the world of a global music icon and the reality of life behind the scenes of the late 1960s music industry.

‘Hendrix in London’ is made possible with the support of The National Lottery Heritage Fund, thanks to money raised by National Lottery players.

Handel’s Salon in partnership with Classic Art London

We are so excited to welcome author and Country Life's art market editor, Huon Mallalieu, to the House, where he will join our lead curator, Claire Davies, to discuss his newly published book, The Ear of the Beholder.

Huon’s book explores how artists have represented sound in paintings throughout time, from the literal depiction of musical instruments to the sights and sounds of landscapes. Together, Claire and Huon will look at Handel’s own art collection and how his favoured artists represented the sounds of the scenes they were painting.

Handel Through Mozart’s Eyes
🗓️ Tue 19 May 2026
⏰ 18:30
🎟️ £25

Join us in Handel’s home for an intimate evening of music inspired by the fascinating connection between Handel and Mozart.

Harpsichordist Nathaniel Mander will perform works by Handel alongside music by one of his greatest admirers, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Nathaniel will perform a set of Handel’s fugues that Mozart was so keen to study, alongside some of his personal favourite Handel pieces and a suite Mozart wrote in the old style in homage to the great master.

This special recital also reflects the story at the heart of our current exhibition, Handel Through Mozart’s Eyes, which explores how Mozart encountered and reimagined Handel’s music.

Our Curator, Olwen Foulkes, takes a closer look at this remarkable manuscript, written in Mozart’s own hand 📜🎶

Dating from around 1782–3, this beautifully preserved manuscript captures the first 20 bars of the fugue from Handel’s ‘Suite in F’ (HWV 427). Originally written for the harpsichord, Mozart reimagined the piece for a string quartet. Although it is not known whether he completed the transcription, the manuscript offers an insight into how he engaged with and imagined Handel’s music.

Explore the fascinating connection between these two master musicians in our special exhibition, ‘Handel Through Mozart’s Eyes’, on display until September 2026

Music: The fugue from Handel’s ‘Suite in F’ (HWV 427), performed by the Consone Quartet - heard here as Mozart reimagined it for string quartet
