About

"London's leading festival of early music" (Financial Times) 

London Festival of Baroque Music is a week of creative brilliance – a Baroque world that erupts with sound and captivates the senses.  

Since its founding in 1984, LFBM has celebrated the dynamism of Baroque music and its continued influence on today’s musical landscape. Located in Smith Square Hall (formerly St John’s Smith Square) – a Baroque masterpiece built in the 18th century and reinvented
as an acoustic marvel for the 21st – the Festival features world-class performances of some of the most captivating music ever written. 

For 2025, internationally acclaimed countertenor Iestyn Davies takes London Festival of Baroque Music's reins, curating a programme that is vivid, bold, and exciting.
