Our History

A decade of baroque emotions

Since its creation in 2020, the Prangins Baroque Festival has established itself as an unmissable event for baroque music lovers. Each year, the festival offers a rich program highlighting well-known or rare works, performed by young talents alongside internationally renowned artists. For six consecutive years, Prangins has become a privileged meeting place between artists, the public, and the living history of early music. From promising first editions to recent performances, the Festival has continued to grow, offering a unique musical experience in an exceptional setting, in the heart of the Vaud coast. This retrospective invites you to relive the highlights of these six editions, celebrating the excellence and creativity that thrill Prangins every autumn.

2026

The 2026 edition celebrates the richness of English Baroque music and highlights the world of Henry Purcell, its most iconic composer. Blending the intimacy of song with the expressive power of theatrical works, this repertoire serves as a special source of inspiration for our young talents, guided by the artistic team.

APOLLO AND DAPHNE For this 4th edition, our week of baroque events is inspired by the new permanent exhibition Ovid in the Jura at the Swiss National Museum and the myth of Apollo and Daphne from Ovid's great poem Metamorphoses. The still-current themes it evokes - domination and violence, mockery and harassment, consent in romantic feelings - prompted us to dedicate this edition of Prangins Baroque to it.
