Sound Unbound

The Charterhouse

Home for early music

The Charterhouse

Explore the grand Tudor interiors and atmospheric courtyards of The Charterhouse – Sound Unbound’s home for early music, both in its original form and reimagined for a modern age.

Hear authentic medieval sounds with Gregorian chant at twilight in the intimate Chapel, the pop music of the 17th-century in 21st-century singer-songwriter arrangements, and Baroque trios in the ornate Great Chamber. And take a time out in the tranquil Norfolk Garden, where you can rest or stroll through Pleasure Garden, an interactive ‘listening garden’ installation. And don't forget to visit our visitor hub, where you can grab a bite to eat and enjoy the pop up performances around you.
