Cultural Weekends in Beautiful Places

02392 383356

Welcome

Arts in Residence 

  promotes cultural breaks in beautiful places.

  The Arts in Residence organisation offers music courses in country 
houses and country hotels that have been picked for their superbly 
appointed positions. They all create an atmosphere in which you can 
enjoy the experience of music and the arts in style, comfort and 
good company.
   The delicious food, excellent wine and friendly ambience are as 
important as the music you will hear and explore. Our prices for a 
weekend or midweek break are fully inclusive: accommodation, 
breakfast, morning coffee, lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner with 
wine are all provided. There are no hidden extras.
   We aim to create a friendly house party atmosphere with people who
have plenty in common.

What happens at an Arts in Residence event?

	
If the event takes place, as most do, at a weekend, then the enjoyment
will start around 5pm on Friday afternoon. This is the scheduled time of
arrival at your chosen house or hotel.

You will be welcomed by your hosts, and after settling in, there will be
aperitifs before dinner. This will give you the chance to meet and get to
know the other members of the party. After dinner, in the comfortable
surroundings of the lounge, there will be a relaxing opportunity to hear
some music relating to the topic for the event.

During Saturday you will have the opportunity to explore the music in more
depth with our lecturers, who are experienced and experts in their field.
There is more music after your return for tea, and before the centrepiece
of the weekend: the Saturday evening four-course dinner with wine.

On Sunday there will be more opportunities for exploring music. Sometimes
there will be a traditional Sunday lunch, while on other occasions the
pattern of the day will be similar to that on Saturday. Departure will take
place either on Sunday afternoon after tea, or on Monday morning after
breakfast.

Occasionally there will be guest artist appearances as here:-



at The Angel, Midhurst, during a "Strauss" weekend.
