Wandsworth Street Concerts

Founded during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 following the 8pm “Clap for Carers”, the Wandsworth Street Concerts ("WSC") bring together local residents and musicians for an informal series of community concerts featuring Chamber and Baroque ensembles.

​

Now resident in St Anne’s, Churchyard* and under the artistic direction of Chris Jeanes, concerts take place every Wednesday at 8pm between the June half-term and the third week of July, with the finale taking on the Friday before St Anne's Church's patronal festival.

​

​Our aims are threefold:

• To make the WSC an annual world-class music series for Wandsworth, featuring young up-and-coming artists, many of whom locally;

• To bring the music out of traditional venues, such as concert halls, to a new audience and all concerts are free (£10 suggested donation);

• To introduce audiences to unfamiliar music and instruments – e.g. female composers, early music (pre-1750 and Chris' speciality) - in an informal setting

​​

We hope you enjoy the concerts. Please bring a friend, a chair, and refreshments (if you ‘happen’ to forget, there will be some…).

* If raining, probable during Wimbledon, concerts will be held inside St Anne's Church, Wandsworth.
