Mourne Chamber Music Festival 2026: Summer of Love

As we enter our third year of the festival, we are so excited to bring you yet another programme of vibrant chamber music. Spanning five days, the festival will welcome a group of young professional musicians from Northern Ireland and further afield to perform chamber music by a variety of composers in the beautiful setting of Newcastle Community Cinema.

Chamber Music is a genre of classical music specifically created for small ensembles. Typically, these ensembles consist of two to eight musicians, as historically this was considered the perfect size for performing in intimate palace chambers. The string quartet, comprising of two violins, one viola, and one cello, is the most common form of chamber music.
