SUMMARY:York Early Music Festival
DESCRIPTION:Created in a wave of excitement in 1977\, the York Early Music 
 Festival is now established as the premier early music festival in the UK 
 – in turn inspiring the restoration of St Margaret’s Church\, York in 
 2000 and the creation of the National Centre for Early Music.\nDrawing in 
 visitors locally\, regionally and internationally\, the festival is firmly
  ‘part of the festival world’ and in 2026 we celebrate just how far ea
 rly music has travelled – beyond the borders of the myriad historic venu
 es of the city – to a world-wide audience.\nThe 2026 Festival\, our 50th
  edition\, opens with Monteverdi’s 1610 Vespers presented by I Fagiolini
  and closes with Solomon’s Knot’s in their extraordinary rendition of 
 Bruhn’s St Mark Passion. Internationally acclaimed guests also include T
 he Sixteen\, B’Rock Orchestra &amp\; Vocal Consort and Imago Mundi. Our 
 Dowland Day on Monday 6\, commemorating the 400th anniversary of one of En
 gland’s most celebrated composers\, invites you into John Dowland’s ve
 ry particular world of music\, poetry and melancholy and later in the week
  we move to the delicate world of French air de cour inspired by the poetr
 y of love with tenor Paul Agnew\, mezzo-soprano Helen Charlston and luteni
 st Sergio Bucheli.
