Towns, cities and regions, such as Greater London have an influence on the style of music, whether it is the 'English Countryside' feel of Vaughan Williams, the strength of Elgar's Victorian Malvern, or the skirl of Northumbrian Pipe tune.
About Greater London
Greater London has emerged over the centuries, but its core is The City of London. the commercial heart of the capital. occupies the sqtiare flue around which the Romans first built a walled community two millennia ago. Its boundaries have changed little since and YOU can always tell you’re within them because the Corporation of London’s coat of arms appears on the Street signs. Less than 10.000 people actually live in the City, but some 300.000 descend on It each weekday, generating almost three-quarters of Britain’s entire GDP. and then nick off again to wherever it is they live.Flattened a couple of times (by the Great Fire of 1666 and the Luftwaffe of WWII) the City has become a model of architectural savvy and houses the impressive headquarters of many of Britain’s and the worlds largest financial institutions. St Paul’s Cathedra] and the Tower of London are also here. and a quiet weekend stroll offers a unique opportunity to explore the beguiling back streets and architectural richness of the area.
