There’s a huge range of events spread over 4 days: concerts, recitals, masterclasses, films, workshops, exhibitions and talks, and a Young Recorder Soloists’ Competition. We have international soloists visiting, well-known groups from the world of early music, and some innovative projects presenting old music in new ways.
