The Sage in Gateshead is probably the most technically advanced music and performance venue in the North East of England and even in the dead of night (as above), the building is the most eye-catching on either bank of the River Tyne.

From the outside of the building it really is hard to get any idea of the scale, but once inside it is easy to become overwhelmed by the sheer size of the place.

The building itself houses a twenty five room music education centre, a rehearsal space and two auditoria with precision, state of the art (or perhaps that should be science) acoustics which guarantee perfect performance delivery.

The Sage is also home to the Northern Sinfonia orchestra and Folkworks, that provides opportunities to watch, play or listen to music traditional to the region.

The official site of The Sage, together with its programme of events may be found here.
