The Valletta Baroque Festival is a yearly celebration of Baroque music. The first Festival was held in January 2013.
Built by the Knights of St John after the Great Siege of 1565 and consequently adorned by its eight langues, Valletta not only had to serve as a powerful fort, but was also to become a strongpoint of culture, economy and politics in the world. Embellished at the height of the baroque period, Valletta rose to become a city built by gentlemen for gentlemen. The Valletta International Baroque Festiva

How did a Baroque Festival transform Malta’s musical landscape?
Founded in 2013 in a country with little early music infrastructure, the Valletta Baroque Festival has become a major winter rendez-vous for European ensembles.
From rarely performed works and intimate recitals to the festival’s first fully staged Baroque opera, Valletta Baroque turns the island into a hub of living history and musical discovery.

Comment un festival baroque a transformé le paysage musical de Malte ?

Des œuvres rarement jouées aux récitals intimistes, en passant par le premier opéra baroque entièrement mis en scène du festival, Valletta Baroque transforme l'île en un centre vivant d'histoire et de découvertes musicales.
