The Boston Early Music Festival (BEMF) is universally recognized as a leader in the field of early music. Since its founding in 1980, it has continued to flourish, presenting newly revived Baroque operatic masterpieces, concerts by the world’s leading soloists and ensembles, and the world’s largest Exhibition of early music professionals. Both the performers and programs represent a broad range of repertoire as BEMF strives to expose audiences to the very best early music has to offer. As the Boston Early Music Festival continues to expand its programs and services, we rely upon the generous contributions of our patrons in our quest to strengthen the field of early music.

You can make a difference through the Named Gift Opportunities program.

We invite you to underwrite your favorite performers or events—either in full or in part—during the annual concert season or at the biennial Festival to help defray the rising production costs associated with presenting these international events. Underwriters receive prominent acknowledgement in concert programs, a block of complimentary tickets for friends and colleagues in superior locations, and a post-concert reception named in your honor.
