In 2020 we went online for our Festival, offering performances filmed on location in Hatfield House through the summer. We were able to give audiences the chance to hear some wonderful chamber music performances from our Festival artists as well as also giving audiences a chance to see some of the lesser visited rooms in Hatfield House, learning more about the venue’s fascinating history, its art collection and musical connections.
