Review of Royal Academy of Music

The vibe in this place is amazing. People are real...

The vibe in this place is amazing. People are really friendly, not at all stuffy, and the free concerts are, as you would expect, first class. The location is super easy to get to (5 minutes walk from Baker Street tube). The thing about it is, if more places devoted to classical music had the open, inclusive atmosphere you find here, it wouldn't have the elitist, exclusive, up-itself cachet that prohibits more people experiencing the world's most beautiful music. There! I'll shut up now.
