In COMING TO CHELTENHAM IN 2015 this anniversary year of both the end of WWII and the start of this Festival, we take a look at the kind of music that was being written during the war, and at its close: pieces by Britten, Copland, Major Partners Messiaen, Poulenc, Shostakovich and Strauss that are as strikingly different as they are indisputably great. Paris, that great cultural melting pot of the early 20th century and a city already emerging from wartime occupation in 1945, is another focus in this year’s festival — from the Montmartre ERIC WHITACRE ALINA IBRAGIMOVA JEAN-GUIHEN QUEYRAS Festival Partners Associate Partners of Satie to Claire Martin’s cabaret programme, from a Joan of MT01 M02 M28 MT09 M43 M03 M13 M14 Arc silent film to wartime Messiaen. Music’s close links with both dance and film play large parts in this 2015 programme. Medieval music, Bernard Herrmann and Chopin are all live accompaniments to three wonderfully different films. We make a happy return to the Everyman OFFICIAL RAIL PARTNER Theatre for a mixed bill of ballet, and the remarkable Princess Hall at Cheltenham Ladies’ College plays host to a tango show with Ksenija Sidorova and a disco-inspired commission by Messier-Bugatti-Dowty EDWARD GARDNER GABRIELA MONTERO SARAH CONNOLLY Graham Fitkin.
