Established and founded in 2015 by Michal Lewkowicz, the Mizmorim Kammermusik Festival 2025 is a multi-day classical chamber music event celebrating the diverse encounters between Jewish music and Western art music. Every year in January, renowned artists from Switzerland and all over the world come together in Basel to present works from different epochs on a specific topic. The programs and artists take the audience on a varied journey, discovering unknown works and new perspectives on the classics.

In January 2024, the Festival celebrated its 10th anniversary, presenting 19 events over the course of a week and doubling its audience compared to the previous year with over 3,200 visitors.

Due to its unique concept, the Mizmorim Chamber Music Festival has gained a special place in the Swiss cultural calendar. The Mizmorim Festival 2025 owes its name to one of the first manifestations of music, the biblical Psalms, in Hebrew Mizmorim.
