  • The 2018 Guide Festivals
    April 2018 The 2018 Guide Festivals FEATURE ARTICLE 10 Questions, Two (Very Different) Festivals Editor’s Note Our fifth annual Guide to Summer Festivals is our biggest yet, with some 85 annotated entries, plus our usual free access to the 1400 listings in the Musical America database. The details for the 85—dates, locations, artistic directors, programming, guest artists, etc.—have been provided by the festivals themselves, in response to a questionnaire sent to our list of Editor’s Picks. Those are determined by a number of factors: it’s hardly a surprise to see the big-budget events, such as Salzburg, Tanglewood, and Aspen, included. But budget is by no means the sole criterion. The 2018 Guide Programming, performers, range and type of events offered—all of these factor into the equation. For our feature article, we chose two highly regarded events and asked them one set of questions, just for the purposes of compare and contrast. Since George Loomis traveled to Ravenna last summer and knows Ojai well, we decided he was the perfect candidate to get the answers. Our hunch that the two couldn’t be more different turned out to be quite accurate: one takes place over a weekend, the over a two-month period; one is in the U.S., the other in Europe; one is rural, the other urban; one’s in a valley, the other by the sea; one focuses on contemporary fare, the other on traditional; one houses its artists in homes, the other in hotels; one is overseen by a man, the other by Festivals a woman; Ojai’s venues are primarily outdoor and strictly 20th century, Ravenna’s are mostly indoor and date as far back as the sixth century.
