Those always-inventive folk at [**Brighton Early Music Festival ( BREMF )**](https://www.bremf.org.uk/?ref=scenemag.co.uk) hit the high notes again with the return of live outdoor concerts in June and July – all with the necessary social distancing.

After a 14-month gap they will present eight different musical offerings – some twice in a day – and all but one at the Royal Spa, Queens Park. They include medieval music from Italy, India and France.

Entitled Myths and Legends, the midsummer concerts run from 5 June to 11 July. They are:
