Morning Calm is a short piano recital beginning at 8.40am, consisting of around 10-12 minutes of music followed by a few minutes' silence for reflection and meditation before ending with brief prayers for the day ahead. You are most welcome to stay for the whole recital or if you would prefer not to stay for the Christian conclusion to leave just before the end. Morning Calm aims to offer a reflective and calm start to the day for people of any faith or none in the hustle and bustle of the West End of London.

As always admission is free.


Mengyao Guo is an internationally active piano soloist and collaborative pianist, acclaimed for her refined musicality and technical excellence. She was admitted to the Xi’an Conservatory of Music in 2017, graduating top of her department. In 2018, she received China’s prestigious National Scholarship and went on to win multiple first prizes in national and international piano competitions. She completed her postgraduate studies in the UK, earning a Master’s degree from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire in 2022 and an Artist Diploma from the Royal College of Music in 2024, both with distinction. Her performances have been praised for their expressiveness, precision, and professionalism.

Between 2023 and 2025, she has given numerous concerts in London, including cross-cultural recitals, performances of original works, orchestral collaborations, and classical–jazz fusion concerts. Her work has been highly praised by the Chinese Embassy in the UK and the Mayor of Birmingham. In 2024, she curated the Nanjing International Youth Music Festival, serving as a jury member for the piano and strings divisions and directing the opening concert featuring Baroque and French repertoire. In 2025, she continues to engage in major cultural and artistic exchange projects between China and the UK, with strong support from the Birmingham City Council and the Chinese Embassy in the UK.
