RETUNE Festival 2025
RETUNE Festival is a two-week series of workshops, panels, and concerts held in venues across Oxford, celebrating underrepresented voices.
There are 27 events, covering a range of genres and styles. Some concerts offer the opportunity to hear student performers in specially curated recitals; others feature pre-existing ensembles who have dedicated their termly concert to the Festival. We are particularly thrilled to be collaborating with professional artists for the first time, and are honoured to feature a world premiere.
All of our events spotlight music that has been excluded from historical processes of canon formation which traditionally favour composers who are white, able-bodied, cisgender, and heterosexual men. Our mission at RETUNE is to redress this balance by programming a wider range of music, giving marginalised voices a platform, and introducing audiences to some incredible music in the process
