About

Gather - Inspire - connect

Founded in 2006 by Tekla Cunningham, Whidbey Island Music Festival is a beloved annual event that presents great performances of baroque and classical chamber music in relaxed and intimate venues on beautiful Whidbey Island, with repertoire Monteverdi to Florence Price. We bring music of the past four centuries to life with vivid and moving concert performances on period instruments.

Our mission is to gather people together at venues on Whidbey Island; inspire with performances that move and uplift the spirits; and connect musicians and audiences in authentic community.

Partnerships with other organizations include Pacific MusicWorks, Early Music Vancouver, Seattle Historical Arts for Kids, Classical Uncorked (formerly Early Music Underground), Whidbey Island Center for the Arts.
