Welcome to the web site of the North West Early Music Forum (NWEMF). We are the first of the regional forums founded in 1977 created for the study and enjoyment of a historically informed approach to the performance of mostly pre- classical music. Our members are drawn from amateur and professional musicians many of whom live in the North West of England and North Wales.
What do we do?
Our main focus is on the practical study of music through day workshops. These are held over a wide area from the South Lake District to North East Wales. We also hold a library of musical instruments which are available for students of early music to borrow before purchasing their own.
Our newsletter is published 5 times a year.
