SHAKESPEARE IN MUSIC FESTIVAL
Echoes of the Bard: Music from Shakespeare's England
Celebrate the soul of Shakespeare’s England with a lineup of the UK’s finest musicians, masters of interpretation from Elizabethan to contemporary music.
Our Festival ranges from early music of the age of Shakespeare through the rich legacy he
inspired in the work of many later composers.
Over a dozen concerts reflect his impact on the traditions of instrumental, choral, art song and
opera. They are supplemented with four wide-ranging talks explaining the phenomenon of Shakespeare in Music over past centuries.
This is the Festival for all who love Shakespeare and who love Music.
Join us for a timeless celebration of music, poetry and the Bard’s heritage.
Shakespeare in Music is a charity established in 2024 (number 1208674) by musicians and Shakespeare enthusiasts to celebrate his musical legacy through an annual festival. Drawing on expertise in composition, performance, conducting, music criticism, and arts management, the inaugural festival will take place in May 2025. It will feature a diverse range of performers, from seasoned professionals to emerging talents, all inspired by the rich musical possibilities of Shakespeare’s works.
