THE UTRECHT EARLY MUSIC FESTIVAL ONLINE

51 live concert recordings available online for free.

The Utrecht Early Music Festival is making its video catalogue available free of charge. At present 28 concerts can already be viewed. Additional concert recordings will be added to this online catalogue every month. By September a total of 51 concerts will be available. A genuine online Early Music Festival.

Festival director Xavier Vandamme: ‘The festival’s video recordings offer unique world-class content. This is repertoire that is rarely heard: from unknown harpsichord music by Giovanni Maria Trabaci performed by Marco Mencoboni, to motets by Johannes Tinctoris with Le Miroir de Musique.’

In addition, the organization is working on an additional programme for the period during which the cancelled festival was scheduled to take place. Vandamme: ‘We are keeping in touch with our audience, and the music will go on. We are thinking of Scratch projects for amateur singers via Skype, live streams of carillon concerts from the Dom Tower, and radio programming with our media partner AVROTROS. We are currently developing these plans in more detail. We expect to be able to launch the offer in mid-July.’
