Support Arcangelo

Support Arcangelo in 2026-27

In our 2026-27 Season, Arcangelo’s little organisation (no office, no full-time staff) will produce 15 concerts including a BBC Prom, a two-week London Handel Festival residency and international tours of Europe and South America involving some 300 musicians and soloists, provide bespoke training to our fourth cohort of Arcangelo New Ensemblists, run a dedicated progamme of events for Friends, continue to share our award-winning discography of recordings with worldwide audiences, and develop new work for future seasons.

This outsize productivity is also exceptionally efficient (the money required to run Arcangelo for a year wouldn’t run a major venue for a month) and consistently meets with the highest audience and critical response.

We need to raise a total of £100,000 in 2026-27 to support our ‘core costs’ – the staff and business services and facilities without which no Arcangelo project could ever begin to take shape. As a registered charity receiving no state funding, Arcangelo has relied since our foundation in 2010 on the generosity of individuals who, simply put, love what we do and want to see and hear more of it. We are proud to benefit from the same tradition of enlightened private patronage that supported the great Baroque and Classical composers and musicians whose works we play.

If you would like to become a part of our success, please explore this page to find out more about supporting Arcangelo in 2026-27 with a one-time donation, or by making a regular gift as a member of the Arcangelo Friends.
