Facilities University Music has four Practice Rooms with Pianos which are available for use by any member of the University community.
Priority is given to students taking music courses.
Others pay a small charge for use. Additionally the University has a small collection of instruments, all of which are used during the concerts series, but are not generally available for private practice. The organ action is electro pneumatic with the console at the front of the building and the pipes in the gallery. This temperament gives significant differences in key 'flavours' and though well suited to music of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, even highly chromatic music of the twentieth century sounds well. Also in the Chapel is a small one manual organ built by Nigel Church around 15 years ago.
