点评:Handel Hendrix House is a house museum that consists of two residences - the house of the famed Baroque composer George Frederic Handel and the flat of one of the greatest guitarists of all time, Jimmy Hendrix.
In the Handel section, you can explore the composer's bedroom, the dining room in which he led rehearsals, the front and back parlours/sitting rooms, and the kitchen. You can also enjoy temporary exhibitions that focus on different aspects of Handel's life and career. Although Handel was German by birth, he spent most of his life in the UK and he lived in this particular house for more than 35 years.
In comparison, Jimmy Hendrix spent less than 2 years in the 23 Brook Street flat that is part of this site, but, nevertheless, this is the most appropriate place in London to celebrate him. The main room where he would have entertained visitors and written music has been restored and you can also enjoy a permanent exhibition that explores his life in 1960s London, his career and his legacy.
Standard tickets to this site cost £14.50, which I think is good value for money if you're interested in either one of these musicians. We didn't have to pay as we got free entry through my Art Fund Pass, otherwise we might not have visited as neither one of us is very musical, so I think we didn't spend more than 45 minutes here.
翻译:亨德尔·亨德里克斯故居是一座由两处住宅组成的故居博物馆——著名的巴洛克作曲家乔治·弗里德里克·亨德尔的故居,以及史上最伟大的吉他演奏家之一吉米·亨德里克斯的公寓。
在亨德尔展区,您可以探索作曲家的卧室、他曾经指导排练的餐厅、前后客厅/起居室以及厨房。您还可以欣赏临时展览,了解亨德尔生平和职业生涯的不同方面。虽然亨德尔出生于德国,但他一生大部分时间都在英国度过,并在这栋房子里居住了超过35年。
相比之下,吉米·亨德里克斯在布鲁克街23号的公寓里只住了不到两年,但这仍然是伦敦最适合纪念他的地方。他曾经招待游客和创作音乐的主厅现已修复,您还可以参观一个常设展览,探索他在20世纪60年代伦敦的生活、他的职业生涯以及他的遗产。
这里标准门票售价14.50英镑,如果您对这两位音乐家中的任何一位感兴趣,我觉得这个价格很划算。我们不用花钱,因为我的艺术基金通行证免费入场,否则我们可能不会来参观,因为我们俩都不太懂音乐,所以我觉得我们在这里待的时间应该不超过45分钟。
