In 2025 the British Isles Music Festival will be held at Sherborne School for Girls, Dorset, UK. - https://www.sherborne.com. The festival is an intensive, residential, performance experience, chamber music and master class course for wind, strings, piano, harp and harpsichord. The age group is 18-32 and the emphasis is on collaboration and performing complete major works. We have 13 distinguished professors who are orchestral principals, chamber musicians and soloists, and who are teaching in conservatories in the UK and Europe. 4 resident pianists work with the students and we schedule 4 concerts each day in which the students can perform chamber music, duos and Baroque repertoire. Concerts are open to the public. The average attendance is 60 students from 25 countries. Concert repertoire is decided in advance in collaboration with the director, applicants and professors.
