Salisbury Musick is a three day festival, celebrating early music. The inaugural festival will be held on October 3rd to 5th, 2025. In the eighteenth century, three day festivals of music were held annually in Salisbury to great acclaim. Salisbury Musick brings together local musicians and visiting Baroque experts to provide a wonderful range of concerts, talks and educational opportunities for all ages.
Margaret Faultless, Patron of the festival, is renowned as an expert on historical performance practice, performing both as a violinist and director. She is extensively involved in educational projects and often brings her group 'Music for Awhile' to Salisbury. She writes: 'I am thrilled to support this exciting development in early music opportunities for performances and audiences in Salisbury. Rich in its own history, the city will be a wonderful home to Salisbury Musick. The performances of such engaging, accessible music will provide something special for everyone. Come and discover this for yourself!'
