The Playroom, Arundel is made up of a large ‘Live’ room (lots of space for a large drum kit or horn section, string quartet etc); a piano room with lots of space around the pianos to breathe, a ‘vocal’ booth (large enough for a couple singers or horn players or even a small drum kit) and large comfortable air-conditioned control room. The main ‘live room’ can also be divided into two giving the studio the option of having 4 distinct spaces.

The Yamaha C7 Concert Grand and Yamaha U1 Upright pianos are available for all sessions. They are kept regularly tuned and hold tune very well in a temperature controlled environment.
