New Paths is thrilled to announce the programme for the 2018 Beverley Chamber Music Festival. Be in the East Riding of Yorkshire this autumn (26th – 29th September) for a feast of world-class chamber music. Co-artistic directors Libby Burgess and Martin Roscoe welcome you to a wonderful festival featuring four evening concerts, three daytime recitals, two performances for children, a talk, and a masterclass – all within the spectacular medieval surroundings of St Mary’s Church.
Libby and Martin are joined by a stellar cast of artists including Liza Ferschtman, Doric String Quartet, Tim Lowe and Marta Fontanals-Simmons.
The programme is peppered with Bohemian music – from Martinu and Janacek to Suk and Dvorak – in celebration of St Wenceslas’ Day, which falls during the festival.
New Paths is honoured to have been entrusted with the running of the Beverley Chamber Music Festival; we greatly look forward to building on the festival’s excellent quarter-century history.
Beverley has been a centre of pilgrimage for centuries, as represented by the famous pilgrim hare of St Mary’s (said to be the inspiration for Lewis Carroll’s white rabbit). We extend a warm invitation to you to make your own musical pilgrimage here this autumn.
