ONLY DAYS NOW UNTIL
BUDLEIGH FESTIVAL 2012 BEGINS!
 |
| Alexandra Dariescu makes a welcome return to Budleigh Festival 2012 |
You probably already know but please forgive us if we remind you that the eighth annual classical music festival begins on 13 July and is followed by a delicious programme of varied music for just over a week. Tickets have been selling well and some concerts are close to being fully booked or are well on the way to being so. Don't delay. Book your tickets today
HIGHLIGHTS
On every day (except Sunday 15th July, at the Parish Church of St Peter's and 22nd July at the Methodist Temple Church when there are festival services) there is an evening concert and from Monday 16th to Saturday 21st when there will be free lunchtime concerts on every day.
Here is your choice of concert:
We start with a wind serenade from the acclaimed orchestra of St Paul's Covent Garden conducted by Ben Palmer. Their programme contains works by Dvořák and Mozart with Jonathan Dove's 'Figures in the Garden'. Tickets available now.
Local children take part in 'The Little Sweep' to be performed both in Lympstone (12th July) and in Budleigh where there will be two performances, in the afternoon and again in the evening, on Saturday 14 July. There is ample opportunity for the audience to sing because there are parts written for this purpose with a choir of children to provide tuition! Tickets for both performances are still available. Generous family concessions apply here
Alexandra Dariescu is a delightful and talented pianist who gives a recital to include works by Schumann, Beethoven, Scarlatti, Debussy and Chopin. She recently featured as BBC Music Magazine's Rising Star. This is a recital not to be missed and some tickets are still available
We are lucky to be able to feature the Florilegium Ensemble who present a baroque celebration. The programme is very full with works by Bach, Scarlatti, Corelli, Vivaldi, Handel, Geminiani and Telemann. A very few seats are still available at the time of writing
The Orchestral Concert given by the Budleigh Festival Orchestra conducted by Nicholas Marshall features soloists Tamsin Waley-Cohen. violin and Sarah Jane Bradley, viola. The programme offers works by Handel, Mozart, Bach, Beethoven and Haydn. Though even fewer tickets than for Florilegium are as yet unsold you may be lucky if you hurry
What an evening is in prospect when we welcome the Barbirolli Quartet who play Haydn, Bartok and Schumann. They return to the UK from their recent successful European tour. Tickets are available
And then there is our opera presentation in conjunction with the New Devon Opera Company, which this year is Puccini's masterpiece Madam Butterfly. This year we go to a larger auditorium when Budleigh takes over the Pavilion in Exmouth. Premium seats sold out long ago but some returns may be available, so try your luck
All good things must come to an end and we close with the hugely celebrated Exeter Festival Chorus who sing three works; by Vaughan Williams, Tippett and Durufle. Staged in large St Peter's church, there are tickets available
Book tickets at Budleigh TIC or by phone 01395 445275
