MAY 22-27, 2022
The 2022 Bloomington Early Music FesJval
(BLEMF) is dedicated to celebraJng women in
early music, highlighJng the presence, influence,
and arJstry of women across nine centuries of
musical culture and music-making. From the
convents of the medieval period through the
salons of the early 19th century, women
parJcipated in music as composers, performers,
poets, patrons, and listeners; from posiJons of
poliJcal, religious, and social power; in front of
audiences and behind the scenes.
BLEMF 2022 aims to give such women the stage
—those long-remembered and those only recently
rediscovered—to bring the music they made
possible in their Jme to our audiences today.
MAY 22-27, 2022
Free & Open to All!
