The Opus Theatre<\/strong> is considered one of the finest concert hall in the South East, in a Grade II listed building created for the best natural acoustics.<\/p>\n

The theatre\u2019s centerpiece, however, is the venue\u2019s new and very special concert grand piano, one of the most technologically advanced acoustic instruments in the world, officially baptized as the ‘Phoenix Opus’. This beautiful 9ft concert grand piano has been commissioned by Polo Piatti, the awardwinning British-Argentine composer and concert pianist, who has recently launched the 700 seats Opus Theatre in the 19th century building of the former congregational church in Hastings town centre. Polo is also Founder and Artistic Director of the International Composers Festival in the UK, as well as Founder and Artistic Director of the Hastings Sinfonia Orchestra. To celebrate the arrival of this unique instrument in its new home, the Opus Theatre is delighted to present a very special event. There will be an afternoon recital by Russian virtuoso Anton Lyakhovsy, followed by an evening recital by British prodigy Oliver Poole. Both programmes will include some of some of the most beautiful piano works by Rachmaninoff, Schumann, Wagner, Gershwin, etc. – all performed by two amazing pianists in the perfect surroundings and acoustics of the Opus Theatre. The first performance starts at 3pm and the second at 7pm. Both recitals will be video-recorded live. Tickets for this very special event are on sale from the Opus Theatre website and at the venue on the day, priced at \u00a315 per recital or at a discounted price of \u00a325 for both recitals.<\/p>\n
