Friends of Cambridge Early Music
President: Professor Peter Holman MBE
Chairman: Jennie Hawks
Cambridge Early Music offers musicians from all over the world the opportunity to study the styles and techniques of early music, by spending a week singing and playing Renaissance and Baroque music with specialist ensembles, and promotes concerts featuring top-class musicians from the UK and Europe, bringing superb-quality early music to Cambridge audiences.
The Friends bring together like-minded individuals to support the organisation, provide vital financial assistance and help us to share the gift of music both now and in the future. Friends, Patrons and Benefactors enjoy a number of benefits in exchange for an annual subscription.
The subscription year runs from 1 January to 31 December. Friends’, Patrons’ and Benefactors’ subscriptions cover the period from now until the end of December 2018.
