Soho is the epitomic centre of music! There is no other place on the planet that could be called the birthplace of so many of the sounds we know and love today.
This gift is exclusive to the London Region
You will experience a magical, mystery tour of delights. Soho is but a small village in what is now the greatest city in the world, but its musical heritage stretches from Mozart to the sounds of today. Our expert guides have lived and breathed the heady culture of the area since they were old enough to pick up a guitar. It is the Bohemian heart of the city, so if you’re into music from Glenn Miller to The Sex Pistols, from Madness to Bowie, or from The Beatles to Led Zeppelin, you’re in for one hell of a treat!
You’ll see the birthplace of The Rolling Stones and the fashionable Carnaby Street; once the centre of world fashion and the scene of The Beatles' very last performance. And that’s just the start. “You ain’t seen nothin’ yet!”
The sites and landmarks you will visit include:
· Handel & Hendrix house
· Wardour Street; famed home of music publishers
· The Marquee Club; the venue for early performances by The Rolling Stones, Brian Jones & Pink Floyd
· Carnaby Street; fashion centre of the Swinging Sixties
· Broadwick Street to see the Soho Mural Mozart to George Melly
· Heddon Street (The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders from Mars)
