Hexham & District Music Society
World-class music. Right here in Hexham.
We’re delighted to present our 2026/27 season — six live concerts of outstanding live chamber music, performed in Hexham’s landmark venues: the Queen’s Hall Arts Centre and Hexham Abbey.
Another year, another rich celebration of classical music in its most intimate form. Six concerts and repertoire ranging from Vivaldi and Mozart to Gershwin and Vaughan Williams. Established big-name performers such as Emma Johnson and the Royal Northern Sinfonia, and extraordinary rising stars including Khrystyna Mykhailichenko.
Whether you’re a long-time supporter or attending for the first time, we invite you to join us for a season of music that’s welcoming, world-class, and local.

Celebrating our 75th anniversary
This is a very special year for us as we mark the 75th anniversary of our society. We’ve been organising concerts in Hexham since 1952, when our very first concert was held on 5th March in Hexham’s old grammar school. Our ambition today is the same as it was then – to create concerts featuring both internationally recognised performers and exciting new talent. We want everyone in the North East to feel welcome and to enjoy great music — no prior experience needed.
