About

Bath and North East Somerset Council awarded a contract to Mr Steve Buck for the provision of pianists at the Pump Room in Bath.

The Pump Room adjoins the Roman Baths Museum, and music is an integral part of the visitor experience.

Music is provided by a Piano Trio comprising piano, violin and cello as well as by solo pianists.

Quality music in the Pump Room enhances the visitor experience, resulting in higher spend by diners and therefore a greater financial return to the Council.

The purpose of this contract is to ensure the best possible musical provision for the Pump Room and, in the case of the solo pianists, to ensure that the fees paid by the Council are competitive in the market.

The contract value is AUD 103,902.
