- Your best bet is to buy either Time Out, which lists all performances of
- everything anywhere in London or a national newspaper, preferably on a
- Saturday, when all the big concert halls take out ads. St John's Smith Square
- or the Wigmore Hall (newly re-opened) are the best bets for early music; the
- Queen Elizabeth Hall or the Purcell Room sometimes offer something. It's also
- worth listening to the radio: Radio 3 (around 90-92 kHz) is getting much better
- about broadcasting early music, and you get intelligent presenters.
