Music at Paxton

Music at Paxton is a ten-day summer chamber music festival held at Paxton House, with outreach events held across the Scottish Borders. Concerts are presented in Paxton’s Picture Gallery (an outreach of the National Galleries of Scotland) and the Marquee overlooking the River Tweed and the historic Union Chain Bridge.

The programme is designed to appeal to people and families who may be new to classical music, and will feature internationally-renowned musicians; those with growing reputations on the UK music scene; and talented early-career musicians. Highlights include:

• a new Associate Ensemble in residence;
• a masterclass for amateur pianists;
• folk sessions;
• family-inspired events.
