Music, Opera & Ballet tours

From the Nationaltheater Munich to Drottningholm's 18th-century Court Theatre, our music, opera and ballet tours offer access to the world’s greatest venues, pre-existing festivals and musical programmes. We plan meticulously so that you can relax and enjoy our trademark experience of top-category seats, the companionship of fellow music-lovers and lectures from leaders in their field. We offer a range of musical experiences, from the intimate chamber music and Lieder of a Schubertiade, to spectacular opera at La Scala, and the annual International Beethoven Festival in Bonn, the composer's native city.

On a grander scale, Martin Randall Festivals feature world-class performers in the finest and most historically apt venues. The cornerstone of every festival is the union of music and place, in glorious destinations such as Salzburg, Lincoln and Sicily, and in the form of journeys – along the Rhine Valley, or through central Germany in the footsteps of J.S. Bach. They are organised and operated solely by MRT and are exclusive to our clients. Although numbers are much larger than on small-group tours – from 100 to 250 people – the principles of care, detail and intimacy, far from being diluted, are simply applied on a grander scale.

Finally, our Chamber Music Breaks in the UK offer the opportunity to hear – up-close – chamber music performed by leading ensembles and solo artists, all the while staying in comfort at famous and well-run hotels.

" A really good combination of art, history, archaeology and music - perfect! " Valletta Baroque Festival - Music & history in the heart of the Mediterranean

" 'Verona Festival was on the bucket list - and the chance to be educated about Verona as well as attend the opera was too good a chance to miss.; " Verona Opera - lyric spectacle in the Veneto

" The group was exceptionally privileged to have John Butt as lecturer. None could have been more knowledgeable and amiable. A most memorable experience for us. " Leipzig Bach Festival - Music by the Bach family and their Baroque contemporaries

" The quality of the performances was excellent as always with the musicians chosen being of the highest calibre... The venues were exciting for me as I had not visited any previously and loved the beauty and history of these places – I was quite entranced with the lovely Schloss Raesfeld and after the beautiful lieder performance, lost myself within its grounds while the second concert was on. The programme booklet as always, is a totally complete guide to the entire concert tour with incredible information on each of the performances including details of the lyrics and their translations that then become wonderful reference literature for me into the future. I have kept every one from your numerous music festivals that I have enjoyed over the years. " Music Along the Rhine - Outstanding music, beautiful countryside and historic towns along Germany’s principal river

" The festival really provided so many special moments that I will carry with me for years to come. " Early Music in Yorkshire - Period performances in historic venues – great halls, a moorland church, a castle and a cathedral – in the sweeping beauty of the North
