CONCERT SEASON

SUBSCRIPTION PACKAGES ARE NOW ON SALE!

For the past 37 years, BEMF has been honored to bring the world’s most captivating Early Music artists and ensembles to YOU. Join us once more and enjoy 9 dynamic programs exploring centuries of breathtaking music. From thrilling débuts, beloved superstars, and a riotous new production from our GRAMMY-winning BEMF Chamber Opera Series, you won’t want to miss a note!

Individual tickets will go on sale later in the summer. 

We are finalizing plans for our Virtual Concerts next year.

BEMF has been exploring new arrangements for our Virtual Concerts after learning about upcoming changes to our previous video-on-demand platform. We have been encouraged by the ongoing developments and look forward to presenting 8 of the 9 concerts in our 26/27 Season virtually. As previously announced, due to contractual limitations, the concert with Isabella Faust and Kristian Bezuidenhout will not be available virtually.

We anticipate 26/27 Season Virtual Concerts being made available for purchase when individual tickets go on sale this summer. We are grateful to our dedicated fans for your patience and understanding. Thank you!
