What we do

Based in Sussex, UK Harmonium Hire provides the very best harmonium rentals in London, Sussex, Kent and England-wide.

UK Harmonium Hire has a broad range of harmoniums for hire, either short term hire (e.g. for one-off choral society Rossini Petite Messe performances, recordings, film/movie set scenery) or for longer terms. We have a number of instruments available at A=440hz, which is concert pitch in the UK.

We have an excellent record of past rentals, providing not only the instrument, but also a technician free as a part of the hire. This means that when you hire a harmonium from us, you have an instrument in prime condition.

We realise that hiring the correct instrument is crucial for the success of any performance. With our wide range of instruments, we have solutions for every venue and budget. For our smallest instrument, we offer the possibility of instrument pick-up. This can reduce the cost of the hire, but pick-up is not available for larger instruments (we transport those as a part of the hire cost).

Previous clients have included the Royal Opera House, The Barbican Centre, Garsington Opera, St Martin-in-the-Fields, The Guildhall School of Music, St James’s Church Piccadilly, St John’s Smith Square (London), Southampton Choral Society, Swindon Choral Society, Winchester City Festival Choir, Gloucester Choral Society, Christ’s Hospital Choral Society, Streatham Choral, and the Duke of Norfolk (Arundel Castle).

Performer Hire

We realise that hiring a harmonium can be a significant outlay for organisations, for instance Choral Societies. We also realise that having someone skilled at the harmonium is important to realise the full expressive capabilities of the instrument you have invested in for the performance.

Playing a harmonium is a completely different art to playing an organ or piano, so having a specialist performer can make the difference between a good performance and a truly memorable performance.

With his knowledge of the harmonium repertoire including the Rossini Petite Messe Solennelle, Edward Dean will add value to your performance. His intimate knowledge of the harmonium has added value to countless harmonium hires both in the United States and Europe. For a more in-depth biography, please click here.
