In a single street in London, separated by a wall, are the homes of two of history’s most significant musical artists. 25 Brook Street is the house that belonged to George Frideric Handel and the place where he composed some of the world’s most enduring Baroque music, including Messiah. On the top floor of 23 Brook Street is the flat where, two centuries later, Jimi Hendrix lived with his girlfriend, record player and guitar. Both were the homes of musical innovators who chose London and changed music. See them together under one roof at Handel & Hendrix in London.

Departure Point
Handel & Hendrix in London, London, United Kingdom
Handel & Hendrix in London, London, United Kingdom Enjoy an hour or two exploring this hidden historical gem in the heart of London. At 25 Brook Street, make your way up the wonky, 250 year old staircase and step back in time into George Frideric Handel's music rooms where he composed, rehearsed, performed and conversed with the leading musical luminaries of the baroque age. This is where he wrote Messiah, and these are the windows from which he threatened to throw opera stars when they refused to sing his arias.
On the third floor of the museum, you will find yourself transported to 60s London and the height of its swinging heyday. The city which embraced one of the greatest guitarists the world has ever seen and made him famous, London, held a special place in Jimi Hendrix's heart and he described the flat he lived in with his girlfriend Kathy at 23 Brook Street as the first place he'd ever truly called home.

Absolutely awful, most rooms are filled with absolutely nothing but a few pictures that can be seen online anyway, the facts etc on the walls are limited and don’t provide any further information than the average fan would already know. The entire place is a replica and has no actual exhibits to look at and the only room that is replicated is Hendrix bedroom! All other rooms are empty. Takes the mick when it’s £14 per person to enter. Better off having a google or visiting a museum with actual things to look at or visiting a local abandoned house for the exact same experience.

Handal's house is 4 floors, Hendrix flat just 2 rooms, with only 1 set up as lived in. In both parts there is only 1 or 2 pieces that were actually there when the relevant people lived there. Still interesting to visit, heard a good talk from a young lady in Handal's bedroom about a piece of his music. As to cost, I suppose it's about the same as most independant museums. Luckily I have an Art Pass

There's nothing I can really add to what's already been said. Hendrix was a legend in his own time and true innovator & pioneer of the rock/blues electric guitar, if you're into that genre. You only have to hear 2-3 notes and you know immediately it's Jimi. I'm so glad I did this little 'pilgrimage' to pay homage to 'the man'.
Although I went primarily for the 'Hendrix', the 'Handel' was also fascinating. I'm sure for some, that would have been the main reason for their visit. The staff were all helpful and well informed.
My only little niggles are that I would have likes to have heard something 'louder and prouder', maybe with a larger screen instead of a little 'telly'. The place is also not easy to find, so read the directions as the entrance is 'round the back down a little alley leading to what looks like a nice restaurant. There also wasn't much in the gift shop (although I think they're closing soon for some improvement work to be done).
ENJOY!
