SUMMARY:2025 York Early Music Festival
DESCRIPTION:The UK's National Centre for Early Music announces the programm
 e for York Early Music Festival 2025\, taking place from 4 - 11 July with 
 highlights including the York debut of the French based orchestral ensembl
 e Le Consort presenting their truly exceptional rendition of Vivaldi’s f
 amous Four Seasons – but not quite as you know it!\n\nOverall the festiv
 al weaves together three main strands: we celebrate the anniversary of Ren
 aissance composer Orlando Gibbons\; the genius of the Baroque with music o
 f Vivaldi and Bach\; and we reflect on the story of Man’s fall from grac
 e from Heaven to Hell!\n\nThe festival opens with the internationally accl
 aimed viol consort Fretwork working with BBC New Generation Artist Helen C
 harlston focusing on Orlando Gibbons and closes with the Academy of Ancien
 t Music\, led by violinist Bojan Čičić\, in a celebration of Bach’s v
 iolin concertos.\n\nGuest artists also include The Tallis Scholars (Sat 5
 ) and The Sixteen (Mon 7) sharing their programmes in the glorious surr
 oundings of York Minster\; the Spanish ensemble Cantoria (Tues 8) presen
 ting a sizzling array of ensaladas and villancicos in a programme called 
 ¡A La Fiesta!\; and Swiss based medievalists Sollazzo (Thurs 10) return
  to York for the first time since winning a prestigious Diapason d’Or aw
 ard.\n\nYork Early Music Festival is proud to support emerging musicians a
 nd this year two of the winners from last year’s York Early Music Festiv
 al Young Artists Competition Ayres Extemporae and Ensemble Bastion will 
 be performing in York.\n\nOnce again\, the festival showcases a variety of
  the city’s beautiful historic buildings including the magnificent Minst
 er\, the medieval masterpiece that is the Merchant Adventurers’ Hall\, a
 nd the intriguing hidden architectural gem Bedern Hall.
