The Berwick Music Series is a pot pourri of concerts, lectures, workshops, community performances, music projects for schools, and an international competition for composers. It is held over three week-ends in September/October in Berwick-upon-Tweed. We are busy planning BMS 2023, and you can find out more about our previous Series:
BMS, under Artistic Director, Prof Michael Worboys, celebrates classical and contemporary music played by soloists and small ensembles.
The objectives of the Berwick Music Series are:
- To promote learning about music
- To promote children’s interest in listening to and creating music
- To encourage community participation in musical activities
- To introduce audiences to New Music.
- To provide opportunities for musicians as composers and performers, including those from the North East.
- To encourage outreach by educational establishments into Berwick.
