  About Us

“There’s nothing quite like the Boston Early Music Festival… mainstream repertoire tends to be cherry-picked by musicologists; brilliant music like this has to be rediscovered.”

THE CELTIC VIOL — AN HOMAGE TO IRISH AND SCOTTISH MUSICAL TRADITIONS
Early music pioneer and superstar Jordi Savall makes his first appearance at the Boston summer Festival in twelve years as he reveals the hidden beauties of Irish and Scottish music from the 17th and 18th centuries. In a program ranging from irresistibly vivid and virtuosic viol music, to more melancholic works, this not-to-be-missed BEMF appearance combines three of the brightest stars on the concert stage today!
