Principally taking place in the town’s Royal Pump Rooms from Friday 2 to Monday 5 May, the 2025 edition of the event commemorates the 150th anniversary of Maurice Ravel’s birth and the 50th anniversary of the death of fellow composer Arthur Bliss. Musicians performing at this year’s festival include Roderick Williams & Andrew West (pictured).

The festival features performances from Trio Shaham-Erez-Wallfisch, the Dominic Alldis Trio, Mark Bebbington, Sinfonia of Birmingham and conductor Michael Seal, Roderick Williams and Andrew West, the Carducci String Quartet and Emma Johnson, Deniz Sensoy and Alessio Ennea, and the Sacconi String Quartet with Simon Callaghan.
