DUBLIN HANDELFEST 2026 | ‘Folia, Fire & Fantasia'

Step into the raw and fiery sound world of 17th and 18th Century instrumental music; from enchanting Folia rhythms and Castello's daring stil moderno, to the brilliance of Handel and Telemann. See and feel how composers were pushing the boundaries of instrumental music. These works chart more than a century of innovation; from the exploratory sonatas of early 17th century Italy, to the cosmopolitan galant style of the 1730s, they reveal a Europe alive with experimentation and artistic expression, and a deepening understanding of instrumental colour.
