Yorkshire Baroque Soloists Yorkshire Baroque Soloists was formed to perform a repertoire from the 17th and 18th centuries for forces ranging from chamber to orchestral size. The group has performed and recorded in most European countries and forms the basis of the baroque and classical parts of York Early Music Festival.
Yorkshire Bach Choir The Yorkshire Bach Choir has gained a national reputation for the very high quality of its work. It is the only choir in the North that regularly performs newly edited and rediscovered masterpieces of earlier centuries, and its contribution to the musical life of the city and county of York has been widely recognised throughout the UK and overseas.
York Minister The University and York Minster have close links, and the manuscripts in York Minster Library have provided graduate students at a higher level with the opportunity to study primary sources at first hand.

The concerts present an enormous range of music given by leading performers, and what's more, they take place within some of England's finest medieval churches, guildhalls and historic houses.
