Music before 1600

eRenaissance is Basel’s forum for early music, designing and premiering new concert programmes each month. A changing rotation of artistic directors create unique, newly-formed ensemble constellations built from a cast of musical stars from the world-renowned Basel region. Since its founding in 2020, ReRenaissance has welcomed more than 100 different musicians to its stage and created 50 concerts exploring all aspects of music before 1600.

The forum supports musician networking, collaborations with academics, instrument makers, and cultural artists, and relationships with other institutions with ties to Renaissance Basel, such as the Historical Museum on Barfüsserplatz, where monthly concerts are held.

An enthusiastic audience has developed around the series, which continues to thrive thanks to a loyal public and the generous support of Swiss foundations.
