We are greatly looking forward to Midsummer Music this year. From Tuesday 21 June to Thursday 23 June, St Mary's Church in Old Amersham will be the setting for our 13th chamber music festival. This year we return to a more 'normal' presentation, with five concerts over three days. We are excited to be joined by the world-class colleagues listed below - all brilliant musicians and compelling artists.
Midsummer Music is a highlight in our year - but nothing without our audience, so do please join us for some or indeed, all of it!

A Simple Formula ... A Memorable Festival
Midsummer Music is a chamber music festival artistically directed by the renowned concert pianist Paul Lewis and his wife, accomplished cellist, Bjørg Lewis.
Paul and Bjørg adopt a simple formula with which they create a memorable festival: to invite the musicians they admire and to programme works that inspire them. Setting that experience in a beautiful and intimate space brings another dimension. The proximity of the musicians means that you not only hear the music, you can feel it too. The musicians' conviviality is also strongly sensed by the audience and is the reason why a good core of the audience return year after year.
